23:1 | Then Job answered and said, |
23:2 | Even to day is my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning. |
23:3 | Oh that I knew where I might find him! that I might come even to his seat! |
23:4 | I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments. |
23:5 | I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me. |
23:6 | Will he plead against me with his great power? No; but he would put strength in me. |
23:7 | There the righteous might dispute with him; so should I be delivered for ever from my judge. |
23:8 | Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him: |
23:9 | On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold him: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him: |
23:10 | But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold. |
23:11 | My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined. |
23:12 | Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food. |
23:12 | 他嘴唇的命令、我未曾背棄.我看重他口中的言語、過於我需用的飲食。 |
23:12 | 他嘴唇的命令,我未曾背弃。我看重他口中的言语,过于我需用的饮食。 |
psm:119:103 | How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth! |
jhn:4:32 | But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of. |
jhn:4:34 | Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. |

23:13 | But he is in one mind, and who can turn him? and what his soul desireth, even that he doeth. |
23:14 | For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him. |
23:15 | Therefore am I troubled at his presence: when I consider, I am afraid of him. |
23:16 | For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me: |
23:17 | Because I was not cut off before the darkness, neither hath he covered the darkness from my face. |
