Job 23:5-7

Lexham English Bible

⁵ I want to know the words with which he would answer me,
and I want to understand what he would say to me.
⁶ Would he contend with me in the greatness of his strength?
No, but he himself^[a] would give heed to me.
⁷ There an upright person could reason with him,
and I would be acquitted forever by my judge.
