Job 16
- 1 Then Job answered,
- 2 “I have heard many such things. You are all miserable comforters!
- 3 Shall vain words have an end? Or what provokes you that you answer?
- 4 I also could speak as you do. If your soul were in my soul’s place, I could join words together against you, and shake my head at you,
- 5 but I would strengthen you with my mouth. The solace of my lips would relieve you.
- 6 “Though I speak, my grief is not subsided. Though I forbear, what am I eased?
- 7 But now, God, you have surely worn me out. You have made desolate all my company.
- 8 You have shriveled me up. This is a witness against me. My leanness rises up against me. It testifies to my face.
- 9 He has torn me in his wrath, and persecuted me. He has gnashed on me with his teeth. My adversary sharpens his eyes on me.
- 10 They have gaped on me with their mouth. They have struck me on the cheek reproachfully. They gather themselves together against me.
- 11 God delivers me to the ungodly, and casts me into the hands of the wicked.
- 12 I was at ease, and he broke me apart. Yes, he has taken me by the neck, and dashed me to pieces. He has also set me up for his target.
- 13 His archers surround me. He splits my kidneys apart, and does not spare. He pours out my gall on the ground.
- 14 He breaks me with breach on breach. He runs on me like a giant.
- 15 I have sewed sackcloth on my skin, and have thrust my horn in the dust.
- 16 My face is red with weeping. Deep darkness is on my eyelids.
- 17 Although there is no violence in my hands, and my prayer is pure.
- 18 “Earth, don’t cover my blood. Let my cry have no place to rest.
- 19 Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven. He who vouches for me is on high.
- 20 My friends scoff at me. My eyes pour out tears to God,
- 21 that he would maintain the right of a man with God, of a son of man with his neighbor!
- 22 For when a few years have come, I shall go the way of no return.
