But he knoweth the way that I take: [when] he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold (23:10) My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined (23:11) Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary [food] (23:12) But he [is] in one [mind], and who can turn him? and [what] his soul desireth, even [that] he doeth (23:13) For he performeth [the thing that is] appointed for me: and many such [things are] with him (23:14) Therefore am I troubled at his presence: when I consider, I am afraid of him (23:15) For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me: (23:16) Because I was not cut off before the darkness, [neither] hath he covered the darkness from my face
(23:17)
