18:023:002 Even to day is my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning.

18:023:003 Oh that I knew where I might find him! that I might come even to his seat!

18:023:004 I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.

18:023:005 I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me.

18:023:006 Will he plead against me with his great power? No; but he would put strength in me.

18:023:007 There the righteous might dispute with him; so should I be delivered for ever from my judge.

18:023:008 Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him:

18:023:009 On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold him: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him:

18:023:010 But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

18:023:011 My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined.
