Job 23:8

New King James Version

“Look, I go forward, but He is not there, And backward, but I cannot perceive Him;

See the chapter Copy

When He works on the left hand, I cannot behold Him; When He turns to the right hand, I cannot see Him.

When He gives quietness, who then can make trouble? And when He hides His face, who then can see Him, Whether it is against a nation or a man alone?—

Although you say you do not see Him, Yet justice is before Him, and you must wait for Him.

If He goes by me, I do not see Him; If He moves past, I do not perceive Him;

Why do You stand afar off, O Lord? Why do You hide in times of trouble?

You have hedged me behind and before, And laid Your hand upon me.

Truly You are God, who hide Yourself, O God of Israel, the Savior!

who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see, to whom be honor and everlasting power. Amen.
