Job 19:25
23 I wish that my words were recorded and inscribed in a book,
24 by an iron stylus on lead, or chiseled in stone forever.
But I know that my Redeemer lives, and in the end He will stand upon the earth.
26 Even after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God.
27 I will see Him for myself; my eyes will behold Him, and not as a stranger. How my heart yearns within me!
