Job 23:6-13 Modern English Version (MEV)

6. Will He plead against me with His great power?No! But He would take note of me.

7. There the righteous might dispute with Him;so would I be delivered forever from my Judge.

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

9. when He works on the left hand, I cannot behold Him;He turns to the right hand, I cannot see Him.

10. But He knows the way that I take;when He has tested me, I will come forth as gold.

11. My foot has held fast to His steps;I have kept His way and have not turned aside.

12. I have not departed from the commandment of His lips;I have esteemed the words of His mouth more than my necessary food.

13. “But He is resolute, and who can turn Him?And whatever His soul desires, that He does.
