Job 23:13-17
Legacy Standard Bible
13 But He is unique and who can turn Him?
And what His soul desires, that He does.
14 For He performs what is apportioned for me,
And many such decrees are with Him.
15 Therefore, I would be dismayed at His presence;
I carefully consider, and I am in dread of Him.
16 It is God who has made my (A)heart faint,
And the Almighty who has dismayed me,
17 But I (B)am not silenced by the darkness,
Nor (C)thick darkness which covers me.
Job 23:13-17
English Standard Version
13 But he is unchangeable,[a] and (A)who can turn him back?
What he (B)desires, that he does.
14 For he will complete what he (C)appoints for me,
and many such things are (D)in his mind.
15 Therefore I am terrified at his presence;
when I consider, I am in dread of him.
16 God has made my (E)heart faint;
the Almighty has terrified me;
17 yet I am not silenced because of the darkness,
nor because thick darkness covers my face.
