1 And Job answereth and saith: -- 2 Also -- to-day is my complaint bitter, My hand hath been heavy because of my sighing. 3 O that I had known -- and I find Him, I come in unto His seat, 4 I arrange before Him the cause, And my mouth fill with arguments. 5 I know the words He doth answer me, And understand what He saith to me. 6 In the abundance of power doth He strive with me? No! surely He putteth it in me. 7 There the upright doth reason with Him, And I escape for ever from my judge. 8 Lo, forward I go -- and He is not, And backward -- and I perceive him not. 9 To the left in His working -- and I see not, He is covered on the right, and I behold not.
