Job 23:5

Read in context

Job 23:3–7 · Berean Standard Bible

3 If only I knew where to find Him, so that I could go to His seat.

4 I would plead my case before Him and fill my mouth with arguments.

5 I would learn how He would answer, and consider what He would say.

6 Would He contend with me in His great power? No, He would certainly take note of me.

7 Then an upright man could reason with Him, and I would be delivered forever from my Judge.
