Job 23:7

5 I would learn how He would answer, and consider what He would say.

6 Would He contend with me in His great power? No, He would certainly take note of me.

Then an upright man could reason with Him, and I would be delivered forever from my Judge.

8 If I go east, He is not there, and if I go west, I cannot find Him.

9 When He is at work in the north, I cannot behold Him; when He turns to the south, I cannot see Him.
