Then Job³⁴⁷ answered⁶⁰³⁰ and said,⁵⁵⁹

Even to day³¹¹⁷ is my complaint⁷⁸⁷⁹ bitter:⁴⁸⁰⁵ my stroke³⁰²⁷ is heavier³⁵¹³ than my groaning.⁵⁸⁵

Oh that⁵⁴¹⁴ I knew³⁰⁴⁵ where I might find⁴⁶⁷² him! that I might come⁹³⁵ even to his seat!⁸⁴⁹⁹

I would order⁶¹⁸⁶ my cause⁴⁹⁴¹ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ him, and fill⁴³⁹⁰ my mouth⁶³¹⁰ with arguments.⁸⁴³³

I would know³⁰⁴⁵ the words⁴⁴⁰⁵ which he would answer⁶⁰³⁰ me, and understand⁹⁹⁵ what he would say⁵⁵⁹ unto me.

Will he plead⁷³⁷⁸ against me⁵⁹⁷⁸ with his great⁷²³⁰ power?³⁵⁸¹ No; but he would put⁷⁷⁶⁰ strength in me.

There the righteous³⁴⁷⁷ might dispute³¹⁹⁸ with him; so should I be delivered⁶⁴⁰³ for ever⁵³³¹ from my judge.⁸¹⁹⁹

Behold, I go¹⁹⁸⁰ forward,⁶⁹²⁴ but he is not there; and backward,²⁶⁸ but I cannot perceive⁹⁹⁵ him:

On the left hand,⁸⁰⁴⁰ where he doth work,⁶²¹³ but I cannot behold²³⁷² him: he hideth⁵⁸⁴⁸ himself on the right hand,³²²⁵ that I cannot see⁷²⁰⁰ him:

But he knoweth³⁰⁴⁵ the way¹⁸⁷⁰ that I take:⁵⁹⁷⁸ when he hath tried⁹⁷⁴ me, I shall come forth³³¹⁸ as gold.²⁰⁹¹

1 Corinthians 3:12; 1 Corinthians 3:13

My foot⁷²⁷² hath held²⁷⁰ his steps,⁸³⁸ his way¹⁸⁷⁰ have I kept,⁸¹⁰⁴ and not declined.⁵¹⁸⁶

Neither have I gone back⁴¹⁸⁵ from the commandment⁴⁶⁸⁷ of his lips;⁸¹⁹³ I have esteemed⁶⁸⁴⁵ the words⁵⁶¹ of his mouth⁶³¹⁰ more than my necessary²⁷⁰⁶ food.

Deuteronomy 8:3

But he is in one²⁵⁹ mind, and who can turn⁷⁷²⁵ him? and what his soul⁵³¹⁵ desireth,¹⁸³ even that he doeth.⁶²¹³

For he performeth⁷⁹⁹⁹ the thing that is appointed²⁷⁰⁶ for me: and many⁷²²⁷ such²⁰⁰⁷ things are with him.

Therefore am I troubled⁹²⁶ at his presence:⁶⁴⁴⁰ when I consider,⁹⁹⁵ I am afraid⁶³⁴² of him.

For El⁴¹⁰ maketh my heart³⁸²⁰ soft,⁷⁴⁰¹ and the Almighty⁷⁷⁰⁶ troubleth⁹²⁶ me:

Because I was not cut off⁶⁷⁸⁹ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the darkness,²⁸²² neither hath he covered³⁶⁸⁰ the darkness⁶⁵² from my face.⁶⁴⁴⁰
