Job 23:8-12
World English Bible
8 “If I go east, he is not there;
if west, I can’t find him;
9 He works to the north, but I can’t see him.
He turns south, but I can’t catch a glimpse of him.
10 But he knows the way that I take.
When he has tried me, I will come out like gold.
11 My foot has held fast to his steps.
I have kept his way, and not turned away.
12 I haven’t gone back from the commandment of his lips.
I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.
Job 23:8-12
English Standard Version
8 “Behold, (A)I go forward, but he is not there,
and backward, but I do not perceive him;
9 on the left hand when he is working, I do not behold him;
he turns to the right hand, but I do not see him.
10 But he (B)knows (C)the way that I (D)take;
when he has (E)tried me, I shall come out as gold.
11 My foot (F)has held fast to his steps;
I have kept his way and have (G)not turned aside.
12 I have not departed from the commandment of his lips;
I have (H)treasured the words of his mouth more than my (I)portion of food.
