Job 23:8-12

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁸ However, if I go east, he isn’t there.
If I go west, I can’t find him.
⁹ If I go northward, where he is at work, I can’t observe him.
If I turn southward, I can’t see him.
¹⁰ ⌞I can’t find him⌟ because he knows the road I take.
When he tests me,
I’ll come out as pure as gold.
¹¹ I have followed his footsteps closely.
I have stayed on his path and did not turn from it.
¹² I have not left his commands behind.
I have treasured his words in my heart.
