Job 23:1-17

23:1
Then Job
<0347>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
23:2
Even to day
<03117>
[is] my complaint
<07879>
bitter
<04805>_:
my stroke
<03027>
is heavier
<03513> (8804)
than my groaning
<0585>_.
{stroke: Heb. hand}
23:3
Oh that
<05414> (8799)
I knew
<03045> (8804)
where I might find
<04672> (8799)
him! [that] I might come
<0935> (8799)
[even] to his seat
<08499>_!
23:4
I would order
<06186> (8799)
[my] cause
<04941>
before
<06440>
him, and fill
<04390> (8762)
my mouth
<06310>
with arguments
<08433>_.
23:5
I would know
<03045> (8799)
the words
<04405>
[which] he would answer
<06030> (8799)
me, and understand
<0995> (8799)
what he would say
<0559> (8799)
unto me.
23:6
Will he plead
<07378> (8799)
against
<05978>
me with [his] great
<07230>
power
<03581>_?
No; but he would put
<07760> (8799)
[strength] in me.
23:7
There the righteous
<03477>
might dispute
<03198> (8737)
with him; so should I be delivered
<06403> (8762)
for ever
<05331>
from my judge
<08199> (8802)_.
23:8
Behold, I go
<01980> (8799)
forward
<06924>_,
but he [is] not [there]; and backward
<0268>_,
but I cannot perceive
<0995> (8799)
him:
23:9
On the left hand
<08040>_,
where he doth work
<06213> (8800)_,
but I cannot behold
<02372> (8799)
[him]: he hideth
<05848> (8799)
himself on the right hand
<03225>_,
that I cannot see
<07200> (8799)
[him]:
23:10
But he knoweth
<03045> (8804)
the way
<01870>
that I take
<05978>_:
[when] he hath tried
<0974> (8804)
me, I shall come forth
<03318> (8799)
as gold
<02091>_.
{that...: Heb. that is with me}
23:11
My foot
<07272>
hath held
<0270> (8804)
his steps
<0838>_,
his way
<01870>
have I kept
<08104> (8804)_,
and not declined
<05186> (8686)_.
23:12
Neither have I gone back
<04185> (8686)
from the commandment
<04687>
of his lips
<08193>_;
I have esteemed
<06845> (8804)
the words
<0561>
of his mouth
<06310>
more than my necessary
<02706>
[food]. {esteemed: Heb. hid, or, laid up} {my...: or, my appointed portion}
23:13
But he [is] in one
<0259>
[mind], and who can turn
<07725> (8686)
him? and [what] his soul
<05315>
desireth
<0183> (8765)_,
even [that] he doeth
<06213> (8799)_.
23:14
For he performeth
<07999> (8686)
[the thing that is] appointed
<02706>
for me: and many
<07227>
such
<02007>
[things are] with him.
23:15
Therefore am I troubled
<0926> (8735)
at his presence
<06440>_:
when I consider
<0995> (8709)_,
I am afraid
<06342> (8799)
of him.
23:16
For God
<0410>
maketh my heart
<03820>
soft
<07401> (8689)_,
and the Almighty
<07706>
troubleth
<0926> (8689)
me:
23:17
Because I was not cut off
<06789> (8738)
before
<06440>
the darkness
<02822>_,
[neither] hath he covered
<03680> (8765)
the darkness
<0652>
from my face
<06440>_.
