1 -Then Job answered:
2 -“Even today my complaint is bitter. His hand is heavy despite my groaning.
3 -If only I knew where to find Him, so that I could go to His seat.
4 -I would plead my case before Him and fill my mouth with arguments.
5 -I would learn how He would answer, and consider what He would say.
6 -Would He contend with me in His great power? No, He would certainly take note of me.
7 -Then an upright man could reason with Him, and I would be delivered forever from my Judge.
8 -If I go east, He is not there, and if I go west, I cannot find Him.
9 -When He is at work in the north, I cannot behold Him; when He turns to the south, I cannot see Him.
10 -Yet He knows the way I have taken; when He has tested me, I will come forth as gold.
11 -My feet have followed in His tracks; I have kept His way without turning aside.
12 -I have not departed from the command of His lips; I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my daily bread.
13 -But He is unchangeable, and who can oppose Him? He does what He desires.
14 -For He carries out His decree against me, and He has many such plans.
15 -Therefore I am terrified in His presence; when I consider this, I fear Him.
16 -God has made my heart faint; the Almighty has terrified me.
17 -Yet I am not silenced by the darkness, by the thick darkness that covers my face.
