23 Then Job answered and said,

Even to-day is my complaint [a]rebellious:
My stroke is heavier than my groaning.
Oh that I knew where I might find him!
That I might come even to his seat!
I would set my cause in order before him,
And fill my mouth with arguments.
I would know the words which he would answer me,
And understand what he would say unto me.
Would he contend with me in the greatness of his power?
Nay; [b]but he would give heed unto me.
There the upright might reason with him;
So should I be delivered for ever from my judge.
