5 I would know what he would answer meand understand what he would say to me.
6 Would he contend with me in the greatness of his power?No; he would pay attention to me.
7 There an upright man could argue with him,and I would be acquitted forever by my judge.
8 “Behold, I go forward, but he is not there,and backward, but I do not perceive him;
9 on the left hand when he is working, I do not behold him;he turns to the right hand, but I do not see him.
10 But he knows the way that I take;when he has tried me, I shall come out as gold.
11 My foot has held fast to his steps;I have kept his way and have not turned aside.
