God's Word Translation

Job 23:7-14 God's Word Translation (GW)

7. Then decent people could argue with him,and I would escape my judgment forever.

8. However, if I go east, he isn’t there.If I go west, I can’t find him.

9. If I go northward, where he is at work, I can’t observe him.If I turn southward, I can’t see him.

10. ⌊I can’t find him⌋ because he knows the road I take.When he tests me,I’ll come out as pure as gold.

11. I have followed his footsteps closely.I have stayed on his path and did not turn from it.

12. I have not left his commands behind.I have treasured his words in my heart.

13. “But God is one of a kind.Who can make him change his mind?He does whatever he wants!

14. He will carry out ⌊his⌋ orders concerning meas he does with so many other things.
