Job 23

 
  1. Then Job answered and said:  (Job 9:15)
  2. "Even today my complaint is bitter; my hand is listless because of my groaning.  (Job 7:11)
  3. Oh, that I knew where I might find Him, that I might come to His seat!  (Job 13:3;   Job 13:18;   Job 16:21;   Job 31:35)
  4. I would present my case before Him, and fill my mouth with arguments.  (Job 40:2)
  5. I would know the words which He would answer me, and understand what He would say to me.
  6. Would He contend with me in His great power?  No!  But He would take note of me.  (Is. 57:16)
  7. There the upright would reason with Him, and I would be delivered forever from my Judge.  (Job 9:15)
  8. "Look, I go forward, but He is not there, and backward, but I cannot perceive Him;  (Job 9:11;   Job 35:14)
  9. When He works on the left hand, I cannot behold Him; when He turns to the right hand, I cannot see Him.
  10. But He knows the way that I take;  (Job 31:6;   Ps. 1:6;   Ps. 139:1-3)  when He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold.
  11. My foot has held fast to His steps; I have kept His way and not turned aside.  (Ps. 17:5)
  12. I have not departed from the commandment of His lips; I have treasured the words of His mouth  (Ps. 44:18)  more than my necessary food.
  13. "But He is unique, and who can make Him change?  And whatever His soul desires, that He does.  (Ps. 33:11)
  14. For He performs what is appointed for me, and many such things are with Him.  (1 Thess. 3:2-4)
  15. Therefore I am terrified at His presence; when I consider this, I am afraid of Him.
  16. For God made my heart weak, and the Almighty terrifies me;  (Ps. 22:14)
  17. Because I was not cut off from the presence of darkness,  (Job 10:18-19)  and He did not hide deep darkness from my face.
