Job 23:7-13 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

7. Let him show fairness in response to me, and let my judgment reach to victory.

8. If I go to the east, he does not appear; if I go to the west, I will not understand him.

9. If I turn to the left, what can I do? I will not take hold of him. If I turn myself to the right, I will not see him.

10. Truly, he knows my way and has tested me like gold that passes through fire.

11. My feet have been following his footsteps; I have kept to his way and have not strayed from it.

12. I have not withdrawn from the commands of his lips, and the words of his mouth I have hidden in my sinews.

13. For he is alone, and no one is able to disturb his intention; and whatever his spirit wills, that he accomplishes.
