| 1 | And Job answered and said, |
| 2 | Even to-day is my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning. |
| 3 | Oh that I knew where I might find him, that I might come to his seat! |
| 4 | I would order the cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments; |
| 5 | I would know the words he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me. |
| 6 | Would he plead against me with [his] great power? Nay; but he would give heed unto me. |
| 7 | There would an upright man reason with him; and I should be delivered for ever from my judge. |
| 8 | Lo, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I do not perceive him; |
| 9 | On the left hand, where he doth work, but I behold [him] not; he hideth himself on the right hand, and I see [him] not. |
| 10 | But he knoweth the way that I take; he trieth me, I shall come forth as gold. |
| 11 | My foot hath held to his steps; his way have I kept, and not turned aside. |
| 12 | Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have laid up the words of his mouth more than the purpose of my own heart. |
| 13 | But he is in one [mind], and who can turn him? And what his soul desireth, that will he do. |
| 14 | For he will perform [what] is appointed for me; and many such things are with him. |
| 15 | Therefore am I troubled at his presence; I consider, and I am afraid of him. |
| 16 | For �God hath made my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me; |
| 17 | Because I was not cut off before the darkness, neither hath he hidden the gloom from me.
