Job 23:1-7
Legacy Standard Bible
Where Is God?
23 Then Job answered and said,
2 “Even today my (A)musing is rebellion;
[a]His hand is (B)heavy despite my groaning.
3 Oh that I knew where I might find Him,
That I might come to His seat!
4 I would (C)arrange my case for justice before Him
And fill my mouth with arguments.
5 I would know the words which He would [b]answer,
And discern what He would say to me.
6 Would He contend with me by (D)the greatness of His power?
No, surely He would pay attention to me.
7 There the upright would (E)argue with Him;
And I [c]would have (F)escaped forever from my Judge.

that I might come even to his (D)seat!
4 I would (E)lay my case before him
and fill my mouth with arguments.
5 I would know what he would answer me
and understand what he would say to me.
6 Would he (F)contend with me in the greatness of his power?

and I would be acquitted forever by my judge.
