Job 23:11

11 En sus sendas he afirmado mis pies;he seguido su camino sin desviarme.

Job 23:11 Meaning and Commentary

Job 23:11

My foot hath held his steps
Trod in the steps he has walked in; he followed God closely, imitated him in acts of holiness and righteousness, of mercy, kindness, and beneficence; and he continued therein; as he set his foot in the steps of God, which were to him for an example, he persisted therein; as he followed on to know him, so to imitate him, and walk worthy of him:

his way have I kept;
the way he prescribed him, and directed him to walk in, the way of his commandments, which he observed constantly, and kept; though not perfectly, yet with great delight and pleasure, and so as not to be chargeable with any gross neglect of them, but in some sense to walk in all of them blameless, as not to be culpable before men:

and not declined:
from the way of God, did not turn aside from it to the right or left, or go into crooked paths with wicked men, or wickedly depart from his God, his ways and worship, as David says, ( Psalms 18:21 ) .

Job 23:11 In-Context

9 Si está ocupado en el norte, no lo veo;si se vuelve al sur, no alcanzo a percibirlo.

10 Él, en cambio, conoce mis caminos;si me pusiera a prueba, saldría yo puro como el oro.

11 En sus sendas he afirmado mis pies;he seguido su camino sin desviarme.

12 No me he apartado de los mandamientos de sus labios;en lo más profundo de mi serhe atesorado las palabras de su boca.

13 »Pero él es soberano;¿quién puede hacerlo desistir?Lo que él quiere hacer, lo hace.
