Job 23:8-12
Christian Standard Bible
8 If I go east, he is not there,
and if I go west, I cannot perceive him.(A)
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;[a]
when he has tested me,(B) I will emerge as pure gold.
11 My feet have followed in his tracks;
I have kept to his way(C) and not turned aside.
12 I have not departed from the commands from his lips;
I have treasured[b] the words(D) from his mouth
more than my daily food.
Job 23:8-12
New International Version
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.(A)
10 But he knows the way that I take;(B)
when he has tested me,(C) I will come forth as gold.(D)
11 My feet have closely followed his steps;(E)
I have kept to his way without turning aside.(F)
12 I have not departed from the commands of his lips;(G)
I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily bread.(H)
Job 23:8-12
King James Version
8 Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him:
9 On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold him: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him:
10 But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.
11 My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined.
12 Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.
