Job 16




gltv@Job:16:1 @ And answered and said:

gltv@Job:16:2 @ I have heard many such things. You are all miserable comforters.

gltv@Job:16:3 @ Is there an end to windy words? Or what provokes you that you answer?

gltv@Job:16:4 @ I also could speak as you. If your soul were in the place of my soul, I could bind words against you and shake at you with my head.

gltv@Job:16:5 @ I might make you strong with my mouth, and the moving of my lips could spare you.

gltv@Job:16:6 @ If I speak, my pain is not held back; and though I forbear, what ease do I get?

gltv@Job:16:7 @ But now He has made me weary. You have made all my company desolate.

gltv@Job:16:8 @ And You have plucked me; for it is a witness, and my failure rises up against me; and it answers to my face.

gltv@Job:16:9 @ His anger has torn, and hated me; He gnashes at me with His teeth; my enemy sharpens His eyes at me.

gltv@Job:16:10 @ They have gaped at me with their mouth, and scornfully struck my cheek; they gather themselves together against me.

gltv@Job:16:11 @ God has delivered me to the perverse; and He has turned me over into the hands of the wicked.

gltv@Job:16:12 @ I was at ease, but He has shattered me; yea, He has also taken hold on my neck and broken me to bits; and He has set me up as a target for Him.

gltv@Job:16:13 @ His archers surround me; He splits my inward parts and has no pity; He pours out my gall on the ground

gltv@Job:16:14 @ He breaks me with break on top of break; He runs on me like a warrior.

gltv@Job:16:15 @ I have sewed sackcloth on my skin, and I have thrust my horn in the dust.

gltv@Job:16:16 @ My face is reddened from weeping; and the shadow of death is on my eyelids,

gltv@Job:16:17 @ though no violence is in my hand, and my prayer is pure.

gltv@Job:16:18 @ O earth, do not cover my blood, and let not my cry have a place.

gltv@Job:16:19 @ Even now, behold! My witness is in Heaven; and He who testifies of me is on high.

gltv@Job:16:20 @ My scorners are my friends; my eye pours out tears to God.

gltv@Job:16:21 @ O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleads for his friend!

gltv@Job:16:22 @ For years few in number will come; and I shall not return the way I shall go.
