"I would set my cause in order before him, And fill my mouth with arguments. "
— Job 23:4, American Standard Version
“I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.”
“I would set my cause in order before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.”
“I would lay out my case before him and fill my mouth with arguments.”
“I would set judgment before him, and would fill my mouth with complaints.”
“I would put my cause in order before him, and my mouth would be full of arguments.”
“I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.”
Then Job answered and said,
Even to-day is my complaint rebellious: My stroke is heavier than my groaning.
Oh that I knew where I might find him! That I might come even to his seat!
I would set my cause in order before him, And fill my mouth with arguments.
I would know the words which he would answer me, And understand what he would say unto me.
Would he contend with me in the greatness of his power? Nay; but he would give heed unto me.
There the upright might reason with him; So should I be delivered for ever from my judge.
