Job 16




ylt@Job:16:1 @And Job answereth and saith: --

ylt@Job:16:2 @I have heard many such things, Miserable comforters [are] ye all.

ylt@Job:16:3 @Is there an end to words of wind? Or what doth embolden thee that thou answerest?

ylt@Job:16:4 @I also, like you, might speak, If your soul were in my soul's stead. I might join against you with words, And nod at you with my head.

ylt@Job:16:5 @I might harden you with my mouth, And the moving of my lips might be sparing.

ylt@Job:16:6 @If I speak, my pain is not restrained, And I cease -- what goeth from me?

ylt@Job:16:7 @Only, now, it hath wearied me; Thou hast desolated all my company,

ylt@Job:16:8 @And Thou dost loathe me, For a witness it hath been, And rise up against me doth my failure, In my face it testifieth.

ylt@Job:16:9 @His anger hath torn, and he hateth me, He hath gnashed at me with his teeth, My adversary sharpeneth his eyes for me.

ylt@Job:16:10 @They have gaped on me with their mouth, In reproach they have smitten my cheeks, Together against me they set themselves.

ylt@Job:16:11 @God shutteth me up unto the perverse, And to the hands of the wicked turneth me over.

ylt@Job:16:12 @At ease I have been, and he breaketh me, And he hath laid hold on my neck, And he breaketh me in pieces, And he raiseth me to him for a mark.

ylt@Job:16:13 @Go round against me do his archers. He splitteth my reins, and spareth not, He poureth out to the earth my gall.

ylt@Job:16:14 @He breaketh me -- breach upon breach, He runneth upon me as a mighty one.

ylt@Job:16:15 @Sackcloth I have sewed on my skin, And have rolled in the dust my horn.

ylt@Job:16:16 @My face is foul with weeping, And on mine eyelids [is] death-shade.

ylt@Job:16:17 @Not for violence in my hands, And my prayer [is] pure.

ylt@Job:16:18 @O earth, do not thou cover my blood! And let there not be a place for my cry.

ylt@Job:16:19 @Also, now, lo, in the heavens [is] my witness, And my testifier in the high places.

ylt@Job:16:20 @My interpreter [is] my friend, Unto God hath mine eye dropped:

ylt@Job:16:21 @And he reasoneth for a man with God, And a son of man for his friend.

ylt@Job:16:22 @When a few years do come, Then a path I return not do I go.
