Job 23:1 (NASB) New American Standard Bible

1 Again Job answered and said:
2 Though I know my complaint is bitter, his hand is heavy upon me in my groanings.
3 Oh, that today I might find him, that I might come to his judgment seat!
4 I would set out my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments;
5 I would learn the words with which he would answer, and understand what he would reply to me.
6 Even should he contend against me with his great power, yet, would that he himself might heed me!
7 There the upright man might reason with him, and I should once and for all preserve my rights.
8 But if I go to the east, he is not there; or to the west, I cannot perceive him;
9 Where the north enfolds him, I behold him not; by the south he is veiled, and I see him not.
10 Yet he knows my way; if he proved me, I should come forth as gold.
11 My foot has always walked in his steps; his way I have kept and have not turned aside.
12 From the commands of his lips I have not departed; the words of his mouth I have treasured in my heart.
13 But he had decided, and who can say him nay? What he desires, that he does.
14 For he will carry out what is appointed for me; and many such things may yet be in his mind.
15 Therefore am I dismayed before him; when I take thought, I fear him.
16 Indeed God has made my courage fail; the Almighty has put me in dismay.
17 Yes, would that I had vanished in darkness, and that thick gloom were before me to conceal me.
1 Then Job H347 EMS answered H6030 W-VQY3MS and said H559 W-VQY3MS ,
2 Even H1571 CONJ today H3117 D-AMS is my complaint H7879 CMS-1MS bitter H4805 CMS : my stroke H3027 CFS-1MS is heavier H3513 VQQ3FS than H5921 PREP my groaning H585 CFS-1MS .
3 Oh that IPRO I knew H3045 VQY1MS where I might find H4672 W-VQY1MS-3MS him ! that I might come H935 VQI1MS even to H5704 PREP his seat H8499 CFS-3MS !
4 I would order H6186 VQI1MS my cause H4941 NMS before H6440 L-CMP-3MS him , and fill H4390 VPY1MS my mouth H6310 W-CMS-1MS with arguments H8433 NFP .
5 I would know H3045 VQI1MS the words H4405 NFP which he would answer H6030 VQY3MS-1MS me , and understand H995 W-VQI1MS what H4100 IPRO he would say H559 VQY3MS unto me .
6 Will he plead H7378 VQY3MS against H5978 PREP-1MS me with his great H7230 power H3581 CMS ? No H3808 NADV ; but H389 ADV he H1931 PPRO-3MS would put H7760 VQY3MS strength in me .
7 There H8033 ADV the righteous H3477 AMS might dispute H3198 VNPMS with H5973 PREP-3MS him ; so should I be delivered H6403 W-VPI1MS forever H5331 L-NMS from my judge H8199 M-VQCMS-1MS .
8 Behold H2005 IJEC , I go H1980 VQY1MS forward H6924 NMS , but he is not H369 W-NADV-3MS there ; and backward H268 W-NMS , but I cannot H3808 W-NPAR perceive H995 VQY1MS him :
9 On the left hand H8040 NMS , where he doth work H6213 B-VQFC-3MS , but I cannot H3808 W-NPAR behold H2372 VQY1MS him : he hideth H5848 VQY3MS himself on the right hand H3225 NFS , that I cannot H3808 W-NPAR see H7200 VQY1MS him :
10 But H3588 CONJ he knoweth H3045 VQQ3MS the way H1870 NMS that I take H5978 PREP-1MS : when he hath tried H974 VQQ3MS-1MS me , I shall come forth H3318 VQY1MS as gold H2091 KD-NMS .
11 My foot H7272 CFS-1MS hath held H270 VQQ3FS his steps H838 B-CFS-3MS , his way H1870 CMS-3MS have I kept H8104 VQQ1MS , and not H3808 W-NPAR declined H5186 VHY1MS .
12 Neither H3808 W-NPAR have I gone back H4185 VHY1MS from the commandment H4687 CFS of his lips H8193 CFD-3MS ; I have esteemed H6845 VQQ1MS the words H561 CMP of his mouth H6310 CMS-3MS more than my necessary H2706 M-CMS-1MS food .
13 But he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS is in one H259 B-OMS mind , and who H4310 W-IPRO can turn H7725 VHY3MS-3MS him ? and what his soul H5315 W-CFS-3MS desireth H183 VPQ3FS , even that he doeth H6213 W-VQY3MS .
14 For H3588 CONJ he performeth H7999 VHY3MS the thing that is appointed H2706 CMS-1MS for me : and many H7227 AFP such H2007 WK-PFS things are with H5973 PREP-3MS him .
15 Therefore H5921 PREP am I troubled H926 VNY1MS at his presence H6440 M-CMP-3MS : when I consider H995 VTY1MS , I am afraid H6342 W-VQY1MS of H4480 M-PREP-3MS him .
16 For God H410 W-NMS maketh my heart soft H7401 VHQ3MS and the Almighty H7706 W-EDS troubleth H926 VHQ3MS-1MS me :
17 Because H3588 CONJ I was not H3808 NADV cut off H6789 VNQ1MS before H6440 M-CMP the darkness H2822 NMS , neither hath he covered H3680 VPQ3MS the darkness H652 NMS from my face H6440 WM-CMP-1MS .
