Job 23

Nais ni Job na Iharap sa Diyos ang Kanyang Kalagayan
23 Ito naman ang sagot ni Job:
2 “Hanggang ngayon ay masama pa itong aking loob,
bagama't ako'y nananangis, pinaparusahan pa rin ng Diyos.
3 Kung alam ko lamang kung saan siya matatagpuan,
pupuntahan ko siya sa kanyang kinaroroonan.
4 Ihaharap ko sa kanya ang aking kalagayan
at ilalahad kong lahat ang aking katuwiran.
5 Gusto kong malaman ang isasagot niya sa akin;
nais kong maunawaan ang kanyang sasabihin.
6 Gagamitin kaya sa akin ang lahat niyang kapangyarihan?
Hindi! Sa halip, hinaing ko'y kanyang papakinggan.
7 Sapagkat ako'y taong matuwid na haharap sa kanya,
kanyang ipahahayag na ako'y walang sala.
8 “Sa dakong silangan, hindi ko siya natagpuan;
hindi ko rin siya nakita sa gawing kanluran.
9 Di ko rin siya nakita sa dakong hilaga,
at sa bandang timog, ni bakas ay wala.
10 Ngunit alam ng Diyos ang aking bawat hakbang;
kapag sinubok niya, lalabas ang kadalisayan.
11 Pagkat landas niya'y aking nilakaran,
hindi ako lumihis sa ibang daanan.
12 Ako'y hindi lumalabag sa kanyang kautusan,
at ang kanyang mga salita ay aking iniingatan.
13 “Hindi siya nagbabago at di kayang salungatin,
walang makakapigil sa nais niyang gawin.
14 Isasakatuparan niya ang plano niya sa akin,
ang marami niyang balak ay kanyang gagawin.
15 Kaya ako'y natatakot na sa kanya'y humarap;
isipin ko lamang ito, ako ay nasisindak.
16 Pinanghihina ng Diyos ang aking kalooban,
tinatakot ako ng Makapangyarihan.
17 Sapagkat kadiliman ang nasa aking palibot,
dilim nitong taglay sa mukha ko ay bumalot.

23 Then Job replied:
2 “Even today my complaint(A) is bitter;(B)
his hand[a] is heavy in spite of[b] my groaning.(C)
3 If only I knew where to find him;
if only I could go to his dwelling!(D)
4 I would state my case(E) before him
and fill my mouth with arguments.(F)
5 I would find out what he would answer me,(G)
and consider what he would say to me.
6 Would he vigorously oppose me?(H)
No, he would not press charges against me.(I)
7 There the upright(J) can establish their innocence before him,(K)
and there I would be delivered forever from my judge.(L)
8 “But if I go to the east, he is not there;
if I go to the west, I do not find him.
9 When he is at work in the north, I do not see him;
when he turns to the south, I catch no glimpse of him.(M)
10 But he knows the way that I take;(N)
when he has tested me,(O) I will come forth as gold.(P)
11 My feet have closely followed his steps;(Q)
I have kept to his way without turning aside.(R)
12 I have not departed from the commands of his lips;(S)
I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily bread.(T)
13 “But he stands alone, and who can oppose him?(U)
He does whatever he pleases.(V)
14 He carries out his decree against me,
and many such plans he still has in store.(W)
15 That is why I am terrified before him;(X)
when I think of all this, I fear him.(Y)
16 God has made my heart faint;(Z)
the Almighty(AA) has terrified me.(AB)
17 Yet I am not silenced by the darkness,(AC)
by the thick darkness that covers my face.
