5. I would know the words which He would answer me, and understand what He would say to me.
6. Would He contend with me in great power? No! But He would pay attention to me.
7. There the upright might reason with Him, and I would go safe forever from my Judge.
8. See, I go forward, but He is not; and backward, but I do not perceive Him;
9. to the left where He is working, but I do not see; He turns to the right, but I do not see.
10. For He knows the way that I take. When He has tried me, I would come forth as gold.
