I would know the words [which] he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me.
Will he plead against me with [his] great power? No; but he would put [strength] in me.
There the righteous might dispute with him; so should I be delivered for ever from my judge.
Behold, I go forward, but he [is] not [there]; and backward, but I cannot perceive him:
On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold [him]: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see [him]:
But he knoweth the way that I take: [when] he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.
My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined.
Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary [food].
But he [is] in one [mind], and who can turn him? and [what] his soul desireth, even [that] he doeth.
For he performeth [the thing that is] appointed for me: and many such [things are] with him.
