Job 23	Jó 23
Job 23:1 And Job made answer and said,	Jó 23:1 Então Jó respondeu:
Job 23:2 Even today my outcry is bitter; his hand is hard on my sorrow.	Jó 23:2 Ainda hoje a minha queixa está em amargura; o peso da mão dele é maior do que o meu gemido.
Job 23:3 If only I had knowledge of where he might be seen, so that I might come even to his seat!	Jó 23:3 Ah, se eu soubesse onde encontrá-lo, e pudesse chegar ao seu tribunal!
Job 23:4 I would put my cause in order before him, and my mouth would be full of arguments.	Jó 23:4 Exporia ante ele a minha causa, e encheria a minha boca de argumentos.
Job 23:5 I would see what his answers would be, and have knowledge of what he would say to me.	Jó 23:5 Saberia as palavras com que ele me respondesse, e entenderia o que me dissesse.
Job 23:6 Would he make use of his great power to overcome me? No, but he would give attention to me.	Jó 23:6 Acaso contenderia ele comigo segundo a grandeza do seu poder? Não; antes ele me daria ouvidos.
Job 23:7 There an upright man might put his cause before him; and I would be free for ever from my judge.	Jó 23:7 Ali o reto pleitearia com ele, e eu seria absolvido para sempre por meu Juiz.
Job 23:8 See, I go forward, but he is not there; and back, but I do not see him;	Jó 23:8 Eis que vou adiante, mas não está ali; volto para trás, e não o percebo;
Job 23:9 I am looking for him on the left hand, but there is no sign of him; and turning to the right, I am not able to see him.	Jó 23:9 procuro-o à esquerda, onde ele opera, mas não o vejo; viro-me para a direita, e não o diviso.
Job 23:10 For he has knowledge of the way I take; after I have been tested I will come out like gold.	Jó 23:10 Mas ele sabe o caminho por que eu ando; provando-me ele, sairei como o ouro.
Job 23:11 My feet have gone in his steps; I have kept in his way, without turning to one side or to the other.	Jó 23:11 Os meus pés se mantiveram nas suas pisadas; guardei o seu caminho, e não me desviei dele.
Job 23:12 I have never gone against the orders of his lips; the words of his mouth have been stored up in my heart.	Jó 23:12 Nunca me apartei do preceito dos seus lábios, e escondi no meu peito as palavras da sua boca.
Job 23:13 But his purpose is fixed and there is no changing it; and he gives effect to the desire of his soul.	Jó 23:13 Mas ele está resolvido; quem então pode desviá-lo? E o que ele quiser, isso fará.
Job 23:14 For what has been ordered for me by him will be gone through to the end: and his mind is full of such designs.	Jó 23:14 Pois cumprirá o que está ordenado a meu respeito, e muitas coisas como estas ainda tem consigo.
Job 23:15 For this cause I am in fear before him, my thoughts of him overcome me.	Jó 23:15 Por isso me perturbo diante dele; e quando considero, tenho medo dele.
Job 23:16 For God has made my heart feeble, and my mind is troubled before the Ruler of all.	Jó 23:16 Deus macerou o meu coração; o Todo-Poderoso me perturbou.
Job 23:17 For I am overcome by the dark, and by the black night which is covering my face.	Jó 23:17 Pois não estou desfalecido por causa das trevas, nem porque a escuridão cobre o meu rosto.
