New English Translation
Job 23:1-5
2“Even today my complaint is still bitter; his hand is heavy despite my groaning.
3O that I knew where I might find him, that I could come to his place of residence!
4I would lay out my case before him and fill my mouth with arguments.
5I would know with what words he would answer me, and understand what he would say to me.
Notes
- 1. Job 23:1 Job answers Eliphaz, but not until he introduces new ideas for his own case with God. His speech unfolds in three parts: Job’s longing to meet God (23:2-7), the inaccessibility and power of God (23:8-17), the indifference of God (24:1-25). ↩
