Job 23:14

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him.

So am I allotted months of vanity,
And nights of trouble are appointed me.

The voice of the Lord will call to the city—
And it is sound wisdom to fear Your name:
“Hear, O tribe. Who has appointed its time?

so that no one would be disturbed by these afflictions; for you yourselves know that we have been destined for this.

For God has not destined us for wrath, but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

and,
“A stone of stumbling and a rock of offense”;

for they stumble because they are disobedient to the word, and to this doom they were also appointed.

Your way was in the sea
And Your paths in the mighty waters,
And Your footprints may not be known.

Clouds and thick darkness surround Him;

Righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

Why do you say, O Jacob, and assert, O Israel,

“My way is hidden from the Lord,
And the justice due me escapes the notice of my God”?

Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His ways!
