Job 23:1-7

Job Says He Longs for God

¹Then Job responded,

2“Even today my complaint is rebellion;

His hand is heavy despite my groaning.

3“Oh that I knew how to find Him,

That I might come to His home!

4“I would present my case before Him

And fill my mouth with arguments.

5“I would learn the words which He would answer,

And perceive what He would tell me.

6“Would He contend with me by the greatness of His power?

No, surely He would pay attention to me.

7“There the upright would argue with Him;

And I would be free of my Judge forever.
