1. Then Job answered:
2. “I am still complaining today. I groan because God is still making me suffer.
3. I wish I knew where to find him. I wish I knew how to go to where he lives.
4. I would present my case to him. I would make my arguments to show that I am innocent.
5. He could give his response, and I would understand. I would listen closely to what he says.
6. Would God use his power against me? No, he would listen to me!
7. Since I am an honest man, he would let me tell my story. Then my Judge would set me free!
8. “If I go to the east, God is not there. If I go to the west, I still don’t see him.
