Job 23:13-17
Expanded Bible
13 “But he is ·the only God [unique].
Who can ·come against him [L turn him back]?
He does anything he wants.
14 He will do to me what he ·said he would do [has designated for me],
and he ·has [or may have] many plans like this.
15 That is why I am ·frightened [terrified] of ·him [L his presence];
when I ·think of [reflect on] this, I am ·afraid [in dread] of him.
16 God has made ·me afraid [L my heart timid];
·the Almighty [L Shaddai] terrifies me.
17 But I am not ·hidden [silenced] by the darkness,
by the thick darkness that covers my face [C though afraid, Job still seeks to set God straight].
Job 23:13-17
New American Standard Bible
13 But He is unique, and who can [a]make Him turn?
Whatever His soul desires, He does it.
14 For He carries out what is destined for me,
And many such destinies are with Him.
15 Therefore, I would be terrified at His presence;
When I consider this, I am frightened of Him.
16 It is God who has made my (A)heart faint,
And the Almighty who has terrified me,
17 But I (B)am not destroyed by darkness,
Nor by (C)deep gloom which covers me.
