CHAP. XXIII. 2 Iob affirmeth that he both knoweth and feareth the power & sentence of the Iudge, 10 And that he is not punished onely for his sinnes.


1   Bvt Iob answered and sayd,


2   Though my talke be this day in note bitternes, and my plague greater then my groning,


3   Would God yet I knew how to finde him, I would enter vnto his place.


4   I would pleade the cause before him, & fill my mouth with arguments.


5   I would knowe the wordes, that he would answere me, & would vnderstand what he would say vnto me.


6   Would he note plead against me with his great power? No, but he would note put strength in me.


7    noteThere the righteous might reason with him, so I shoulde be deliuered for euer from my Iudge.


8    noteBehold, if I go to the East, he is not there: if to the West, yet I can not perceiue him:


9   If to the North where he worketh, yet I cannot see him: he wil hide himselfe in the South, and I cannot beholde him. The oppression of the wicked.


10   But he knoweth my note way, & trieth mee, and I shal come forth like the gold.


11   My foote hath followed his steps: his way haue I kept, and haue not declined.


12   Neyther haue I departed from the commandement of his lippes, and I haue note esteemed the words of his mouth more then mine appointed foode.


13   Yet he is in one minde, & who can note turne him? yea, he doeth what his minde desireth.


14   For he will performe that, which is decreed of me, and note many such things are with him.


15   Therefore I am troubled at his presence, & in considering it, I am afraid of him.


16   For God note hath softened mine heart, & the Almightie hath troubled me.


17   For I am not cut off in note darknesse, but he hath hid the darkenesse from my face.
