New Testament

Job 23:5-12 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

5. I would learn how He would answer me;and understand what He would say to me.

6. Would He prosecute me forcefully?No, He will certainly pay attention to me.

7. Then an upright man could reason with Him,and I would escape from my Judge forever.

8. If I go east, He is not there,and if I go west, I cannot perceive Him.

9. When He is at work to the north, I cannot see Him;when He turns south, I cannot find Him.

10. Yet He knows the way I have taken; when He has tested me, I will emerge as pure gold.

11. My feet have followed in His tracks;I have kept to His way and not turned aside.

12. I have not departed from the commands of His lips;I have treasured the words of His mouthmore than my daily food.
