Job 23:2-6
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 23

2'Even today my complaint is rebellion; His hand is heavy despite my groaning. 3Oh that I knew how to find Him, That I might come to His home! 4I would present my case before Him And fill my mouth with arguments. 5I would learn the words which He would answer, And perceive what He would tell me. 6Would He contend with me by the greatness of His power? No, surely He would pay attention to me.
King James Version

Chapter 23

2Even to day is my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning.
3Oh that I knew where I might find him! that I might come even to his seat!
4I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.
5I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me.
6Will he plead against me with his great power? No; but he would put strength in me.
Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 23

2Today also my complaint is bitter. His hand is heavy despite my groaning. 3If only I knew how to find him, so that I could go to his throne. 4I would plead my case before him and fill my mouth with arguments. 5I would learn how he would answer me; and understand what he would say to me. 6Would he prosecute me forcefully? No, he would certainly pay attention to me.
New Living Translation

Chapter 23

2'My complaint today is still a bitter one, and I try hard not to groan aloud. 3If only I knew where to find God, I would go to his court. 4I would lay out my case and present my arguments. 5Then I would listen to his reply and understand what he says to me. 6Would he use his great power to argue with me? No, he would give me a fair hearing.
English Standard Version

Chapter 23

2"Today also my complaint is bitter; my hand is heavy on account of my groaning. 3Oh, that I knew where I might find him, that I might come even to his seat! 4I would lay my case before him and fill my mouth with arguments. 5I would know what he would answer me and understand what he would say to me. 6Would he contend with me in the greatness of his power? No; he would pay attention to me.
New International Version

Chapter 23

2"Even today my complaint is bitter; his hand is heavy in spite of my groaning. 3If only I knew where to find him; if only I could go to his dwelling! 4I would state my case before him and fill my mouth with arguments. 5I would find out what he would answer me, and consider what he would say to me. 6Would he vigorously oppose me? No, he would not press charges against me.
New King James Version

Chapter 23

2“Even today my complaint is bitter; My hand is listless because of my groaning. 3 Oh, that I knew where I might find Him, That I might come to His seat! 4I would present my case before Him, And fill my mouth with arguments. 5I would know the words which He would answer me, And understand what He would say to me. 6 Would He contend with me in His great power? No! But He would take note of me.
