Job 23:11–13

11 My feet have closely followed his steps;

I have kept to his way without turning aside.

12 I have not departed from the commands of his lips;

I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily bread.

13 “But he stands alone, and who can oppose him?

He does whatever he pleases.

11 My foot has held fast to his steps;

I have kept his way and have not turned aside.

12 I have not departed from the commandment of his lips;

I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my portion of food.

13 But he is unchangeable, and who can turn him back?

What he desires, that he does.

11 For I have stayed on God’s paths;

I have followed his ways and not turned aside.

12 I have not departed from his commands,

but have treasured his words more than daily food.

13 But once he has made his decision, who can change his mind?

Whatever he wants to do, he does.

11 My foot has held fast to His steps;

I have kept His way and not turned aside.

12 I have not departed from the commandment of His lips;

I have treasured the words of His mouth

More than my necessary food.

13 “But He is unique, and who can make Him change?

And whatever His soul desires, that He does.

11 My feet have closely followed his steps;

I have stayed in his way;

I did not turn aside.

12 I have never left the commands he has spoken;

I have treasured his words more than my own.

13 “But he is the only God.

Who can come against him?

He does anything he wants.

11 My foot hath held fast to his steps;

His way have I kept, and turned not aside.

12 I have not gone back from the commandment of his lips;

I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

13 But he is in one mind, and who can turn him?

And what his soul desireth, even that he doeth.

11 My foot hath held to his steps; his way have I kept, and not turned aside. 12 Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have laid up the words of his mouth more than the purpose of my own heart.

13 But he is in one mind, and who can turn him? And what his soul desireth, that will he do.

11 I have followed his footsteps closely. 

I have stayed on his path and did not turn from it. 

12 I have not left his commands behind. 

I have treasured his words in my heart. 

13 “But God is one of a kind. 

Who can make him change his mind? 

He does whatever he wants! 

11 My feet have followed in His tracks;

I have kept to His way and not turned aside.

12 I have not departed from the commands of His lips;

I have treasured the words of His mouth

more than my daily food.

13 But He is unchangeable; who can oppose Him?

He does what He desires.

11 My foot has held fast to his steps;

I have kept his way and have not turned aside.

12 I have not departed from the commandment of his lips;

I have treasured his words in my bosom.

13 But he stands alone, and who can dissuade him?

What he desires, that he does.

11 My foot has held on to his steps;

I have kept his way, and I have not turned aside.

12 From the commandment of his lips, indeed I have not departed;

I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily food.

13 “But he is alone, and who can dissuade him?

And whatever he desires, indeed, he does it.

11 My feet have closely followed his steps.

I’ve stayed on his path without turning away.

12 I haven’t disobeyed his commands.

I’ve treasured his words more than my daily bread.

13 “But he’s the only God. Who can oppose him?

He does anything he wants to do.

11 “My foot has held fast to His path;

I have kept His way and not turned aside.

12 “I have not departed from the command of His lips;

I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my necessary food.

13 “But He is unique and who can turn Him?

And what His soul desires, that He does.
