Job 19:23-27
Holman Christian Standard Bible
23 I wish that my words were written down,
that they were recorded on a scroll
24 or were inscribed in stone forever
by an iron stylus and lead!
25 But I know my living Redeemer,[a](A)
and He will stand on the dust[b] at last.[c](B)
26 Even after my skin has been destroyed,[d]
yet I will see God in[e] my flesh.(C)
27 I will see Him myself;
my eyes will look at Him, and not as a stranger.[f]
My heart longs[g] within me.(D)
Job 19:23-27
New Living Translation
23 “Oh, that my words could be recorded.
Oh, that they could be inscribed on a monument,
24 carved with an iron chisel and filled with lead,
engraved forever in the rock.
25 “But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives,
and he will stand upon the earth at last.
26 And after my body has decayed,
yet in my body I will see God![a]
27 I will see him for myself.
Yes, I will see him with my own eyes.
I am overwhelmed at the thought!
