1 Again Job answered and said: | 1 Then Job answered, and said: |
2 Though I know my complaint is bitter, his hand is heavy upon me in my groanings. | 2 Now also my words are in bitterness, and the hand of my scourge is more grievous than my mourning. |
3 Oh, that today I might find him, that I might come to his judgment seat! | 3 Who will grant me that I might know and find him, and come even to his throne? |
4 I would set out my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments; | 4 I would set judgment before him, and would fill my mouth with complaints. |
5 I would learn the words with which he would answer, and understand what he would reply to me. | 5 That I might know the words that he would answer me, and understand what he would say to me. |
6 Even should he contend against me with his great power, yet, would that he himself might heed me! | 6 I would not that he should contend with me with much strength, nor overwhelm me with the weight of his greatness. |
7 There the upright man might reason with him, and I should once and for all preserve my rights. | 7 Let him propose equity against me, and let my judgment come to victory. |
8 But if I go to the east, he is not there; or to the west, I cannot perceive him; | 8 But if I go to the east, he appeareth not; if to the west, I shall not understand him. |
9 Where the north enfolds him, I behold him not; by the south he is veiled, and I see him not. | 9 If to the left hand, what shall I do? I shall not take hold on him: if I turn myself to the right hand, I shall not see him. |
10 Yet he knows my way; if he proved me, I should come forth as gold. | 10 But he knoweth my way, and has tried me as gold that passeth through the fire: |
11 My foot has always walked in his steps; his way I have kept and have not turned aside. | 11 My foot hath followed his steps, I have kept his way, and have not declined from it. |
12 From the commands of his lips I have not departed; the words of his mouth I have treasured in my heart. | 12 I have not departed from the commandments of his lips, and the words of his mouth I have hid in my bosom. |
13 But he had decided, and who can say him nay? What he desires, that he does. | 13 For he is alone, and no man can turn away his thought: and whatsoever is soul hath desired, that hath he done. |
14 For he will carry out what is appointed for me; and many such things may yet be in his mind. | 14 And when he shall have fulfilled his will in me, many other like things are also at hand with him. |
15 Therefore am I dismayed before him; when I take thought, I fear him. | 15 And therefore I am troubled at his presence, and when I consider him I am made pensive with fear. |
16 Indeed God has made my courage fail; the Almighty has put me in dismay. | 16 God hath softened my heart, and the Almighty hath troubled me. |
17 Yes, would that I had vanished in darkness, and that thick gloom were before me to conceal me. | 17 For I have not perished because of the darkness that hangs over me, neither hath the mist covered my face. |
