Job 23:8-12

21st Century King James Version

⁸ “Behold, I go forward, but He is not there, and backward, but I cannot perceive Him;

⁹ on the left hand where He doth work, but I cannot behold Him; He hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see Him.

¹⁰ But He knoweth the way that I take; when He hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

¹¹ My foot hath held His steps; His way have I kept, and not declined.

¹² Neither have I gone back from the commandment of His lips; I have esteemed the words of His mouth more than my necessary food.
