# he knows the way that I take

Job's actions are spoken of as if he is walking on a path. Alternate translation: "God knows what I do" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])

# I will come out like gold

Job believes that the test will prove that he is as pure as refined gold. Alternate translation: "he will see that I am as pure as gold when anything not pure has been burned away" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-simile]])
