Then JobH347 answeredH6030 and saidH559,
Even to dayH3117 is my complaintH7879 bitterH4805: my strokeH3027 is heavierH3513 than my groaningH585. {stroke: Heb. hand}
Oh thatH5414 I knewH3045 where I might findH4672 him! that I might comeH935 even to his seatH8499!
I would orderH6186 my causeH4941 beforeH6440 him, and fillH4390 my mouthH6310 with argumentsH8433.
I would knowH3045 the wordsH4405 which he would answerH6030 me, and understandH995 what he would sayH559 unto me.
Will he pleadH7378 againstH5978 me with his greatH7230 powerH3581? No; but he would putH7760 strength in me.
There the righteousH3477 might disputeH3198 with him; so should I be deliveredH6403 for everH5331 from my judgeH8199.
Behold, I goH1980 forwardH6924, but he is not there; and backwardH268, but I cannot perceiveH995 him:
On the left handH8040, where he doth workH6213, but I cannot beholdH2372 him: he hidethH5848 himself on the right handH3225, that I cannot seeH7200 him:
But he knowethH3045 the wayH1870 that I takeH5978: when he hath triedH974 me, I shall come forthH3318 as goldH2091. {that…: Heb. that is with me}
My footH7272 hath heldH270 his stepsH838, his wayH1870 have I keptH8104, and not declinedH5186.
Neither have I gone backH4185 from the commandmentH4687 of his lipsH8193; I have esteemedH6845 the wordsH561 of his mouthH6310 more than my necessaryH2706 food. {esteemed: Heb. hid, or, laid up} {my…: or, my appointed portion}
But he is in oneH259 mind, and who can turnH7725 him? and what his soulH5315 desirethH183, even that he doethH6213.
For he performethH7999 the thing that is appointedH2706 for me: and manyH7227 suchH2007 things are with him.
Therefore am I troubledH926 at his presenceH6440: when I considerH995, I am afraidH6342 of him.
For GodH410 maketh my heartH3820 softH7401, and the AlmightyH7706 troublethH926 me:
Because I was not cut offH6789 beforeH6440 the darknessH2822, neither hath he coveredH3680 the darknessH652 from my faceH6440.

If I speak of strengthH3581, lo, he is strongH533: and if of judgmentH4941, who shall setH3259 me a time to plead?
In the dayH3117 when I criedH7121 thou answeredstH6030 me, and strengthenedstH7292 me with strengthH5797 in my soulH5315.
Neither isH3426 there any daysmanH3198 betwixt us, that might layH7896 his handH3027 upon us bothH8147. {any…: Heb. one that should argue} {daysman: or, umpire}
AndG2532 he saidG2046 unto meG3427, MyG3450 graceG5485 is sufficientG714 for theeG4671: forG1063 myG3450 strengthG1411 is made perfectG5048 inG1722 weaknessG769. Most gladlyG2236 thereforeG3767 will IG2744 ratherG3123 gloryG2744 inG1722 myG3450 infirmitiesG769, thatG2443 the powerG1411 of ChristG5547 may restG1981 uponG1909 meG1691.
ThereforeG1352 I take pleasureG2106 inG1722 infirmitiesG769, inG1722 reproachesG5196, inG1722 necessitiesG318, inG1722 persecutionsG1375, inG1722 distressesG4730 forG5228 Christ'sG5547 sakeG5228: forG1063 whenG3752 I am weakG770, thenG5119 amG1510 I strongG1415.
FuryH2534 is not in me: who would setH5414 the briersH8068 and thornsH7898 against me in battleH4421? I would goH6585 through them, I would burnH6702 them togetherH3162. {go…: or, march against}
In measureH5432, when it shooteth forthH7971, thou wilt debateH7378 with it: he stayethH1898 his roughH7186 windH7307 in the dayH3117 of the east windH6921. {it shooteth…: or, thou sendest it forth} {he…: or, when he removeth it with}
