Job 23:8


Job 23:7 Job 23:8 (KJV) Job 23:9
There the righteous might dispute with him; so should I be delivered for ever from my judge.
Behold, I go forward, but he [is] not [there]; and backward, but I cannot perceive him:
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]:
