6Would he contend with me in the greatness of his power? Nay; but he would give heed unto me.

7There the upright might reason with him; So should I be delivered for ever from my judge.

8Behold, I go forward, but he is not [there]; And backward, but I cannot perceive him;

9On the left hand, when he doth work, but I cannot behold him; He hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him.

10But he knoweth the way that I take; When he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

11My foot hath held fast to his steps; His way have I kept, and turned not aside.

12I have not gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.
