JOB

JOB 16-1Then Job answered and said,
JOB 16-2I have heard many such things: miserable comforters are ye all.
JOB 16-3Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldeneth thee that thou answerest?
JOB 16-4I also could speak as ye do: if your soul were in my soul's stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake mine head at you.
JOB 16-5But I would strengthen you with my mouth, and the moving of my lips should asswage your grief.
JOB 16-6Though I speak, my grief is not asswaged: and though I forbear, what am I eased?
JOB 16-7But now he hath made me weary: thou hast made desolate all my company.
JOB 16-8And thou hast filled me with wrinkles, which is a witness against me: and my leanness rising up in me beareth witness to my face.
JOB 16-9He teareth me in his wrath, who hateth me: he gnasheth upon me with his teeth; mine enemy sharpeneth his eyes upon me.
JOB 16-10They have gaped upon me with their mouth; they have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully; they have gathered themselves together against me.
JOB 16-11God hath delivered me to the ungodly, and turned me over into the hands of the wicked.
JOB 16-12I was at ease, but he hath broken me asunder: he hath also taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces, and set me up for his mark.
JOB 16-13His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground.
JOB 16-14He breaketh me with breach upon breach, he runneth upon me like a giant.
JOB 16-15I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and defiled my horn in the dust.
JOB 16-16My face is foul with weeping, and on my eyelids is the shadow of death;
JOB 16-17Not for any injustice in mine hands: also my prayer is pure.
JOB 16-18O earth, cover not thou my blood, and let my cry have no place.
JOB 16-19Also now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and my record is on high.
JOB 16-20My friends scorn me: but mine eye poureth out tears unto God.
JOB 16-21O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!
JOB 16-22When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return.
