— Job 23:4, Catholic Public Domain 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 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 by saying:
Now again my conversation is in bitterness, and the force of my scourging weighs more heavily on me because of my mourning.
Who will grant me that I might know and find him, and that I may approach even to his throne?
I would place judgment before his eye, and my mouth would fill with criticism,
so that I may know the words that he will answer me and understand what he will say to me.
I do not want him to contend with me with much strength, nor to overwhelm me with the bulk of his greatness.
Let him show fairness in response to me, and let my judgment reach to victory.
