3O that I knewe where I might find him! that I might come euen to his seate! 4I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments. 5I would know the words which he would answere me, and vnderstand what he would say vnto me. 6Will he plead against me with his great power? No, but hee would put strength in me. 7There the righteous might dispute with him; so should I be deliuered for euer from my Iudge.
