Job 23:8-12
Lexham English Bible
8 “When I go forward, he is not there,[a]
or[b] backward, I cannot see him.[c]
9 When he works[d] on the left, I cannot perceive[e] him;
he turns to the right, but[f] I cannot see him.
10 But he knows the way that I take;[g]
he tests me—I shall come out like gold.
11 My foot has held on to his steps;
I have kept his way, and I have not turned aside.
12 From the commandment of his lips, indeed[h] I have not departed;
I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily food.
Job 23:8-12
American Standard Version
8 Behold, I go forward, but he is not there;
And backward, but I cannot perceive him;
9 On the left hand, when he doth work, but I cannot behold him;
He [a]hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him.
10 [b]But he knoweth [c]the way that I take;
When he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.
11 My foot hath held fast to his steps;
His way have I kept, and turned not aside.
12 I have not gone back from the commandment of his lips;
I have treasured up the words of his mouth [d]more than my [e]necessary food.
Job 23:8-12
