Job 19:23-27
Legacy Standard Bible
23 “Oh that my words were written!
Oh that they were (A)inscribed in a book!
24 That with an iron stylus and lead
They were engraved in the rock forever!
25 As for me, I know that (B)my [a]Redeemer lives,
And [b]at the last He will rise up over the dust of this world.
26 Even after my skin [c]is destroyed,
Yet from my flesh I shall (C)behold God,
27 Whom I [d]myself shall behold,
And whom my eyes will see and not another.
My [e]heart (D)faints [f]within me!
Job 19:23-27
International Standard Version
23 If only my words were written down;
if only they were inscribed in a book
24 using an iron stylus with lead for ink!
Then they’d be engraved in rock forever.
25 “As for me, I know that my Vindicator[a] is alive;
And he, the Last One,[b] will take his stand on the soil.[c]
26 Even after my skin has been destroyed,
clothed in my flesh I will see God,
27 whom I will see for myself.
My own eyes will look at him—
there won’t be anyone else for me!—
He is the culmination of my innermost desire.”
