American Standard Version
"I have not gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food. "
— Job 23:12, American Standard Version
“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.”
“I haven't gone back from the commandment of his lips. I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.”
“I have not departed from the commands of his lips; I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my allotted portion.”
“I have not departed from the commandments of his lips, and the words of his mouth I have hid in my bosom.”
“I have never gone against the orders of his lips; the words of his mouth have been stored up in my heart.”
“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.”
On the left hand, when 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 fast to his steps; His way have I kept, and turned not aside.
I have not gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.
But he is in onemind, and who can turn him? And what his soul desireth, even that he doeth.
For he performeth that which is appointed for me: And many such things are with him.
Therefore am I terrified at his presence; When I consider, I am afraid of him.
