Job 23 (kjv)

Then Job^H347 answered^H6030 and said^H559,²Even to day^H3117 is my complaint^H7879 bitter^H4805: my stroke^H3027 is heavier^H3513 than my groaning^H585.³Oh that^H5414 I knew^H3045 where I might find^H4672 him! that I might come^H935 even to his seat^H8499!⁴I would order^H6186 my cause^H4941 before^H6440 him, and fill^H4390 my mouth^H6310 with arguments^H8433.⁵I would know^H3045 the words^H4405 which he would answer^H6030 me, and understand^H995 what he would say^H559 unto me.

⁶Will he plead^H7378 against^H5978 me with his great^H7230 power^H3581? No; but he would put^H7760 strength in me.⁷There the righteous^H3477 might dispute^H3198 with him; so should I be delivered^H6403 for ever^H5331 from my judge^H8199.

⁸Behold, I go^H1980 forward^H6924, but he is not there; and backward^H268, but I cannot perceive^H995 him:⁹On the left hand^H8040, where he doth work^H6213, but I cannot behold^H2372 him: he hideth^H5848 himself on the right hand^H3225, that I cannot see^H7200 him:¹⁰But he knoweth^H3045 the way^H1870 that I take^H5978: when he hath tried^H974 me, I shall come forth^H3318 as gold^H2091.

¹¹My foot^H7272 hath held^H270 his steps^H838, his way^H1870 have I kept^H8104, and not declined^H5186.¹²Neither have I gone back^H4185 from the commandment^H4687 of his lips^H8193; I have esteemed^H6845 the words^H561 of his mouth^H6310 more than my necessary^H2706 food.

¹³But he is in one^H259 mind, and who can turn^H7725 him? and what his soul^H5315 desireth^H183, even that he doeth^H6213.¹⁴For he performeth^H7999 the thing that is appointed^H2706 for me: and many^H7227 such^H2007 things are with him.¹⁵Therefore am I troubled^H926 at his presence^H6440: when I consider^H995, I am afraid^H6342 of him.¹⁶For God^H410 maketh my heart^H3820 soft^H7401, and the Almighty^H7706 troubleth^H926 me:¹⁷Because I was not cut off^H6789 before^H6440 the darkness^H2822, neither hath he covered^H3680 the darkness^H652 from my face^H6440.
