acv - 17

acv@Job:17:1 @ My spirit is consumed, my days are extinct, the grave is [ready] for me.

acv@Job:17:2 @ Surely there are mockers with me, and my eye dwells upon their provocation.

acv@Job:17:3 @ Give now a pledge, be surety for me with thyself. Who is there that will strike hands with me?

acv@Job:17:4 @ For thou have hid their heart from understanding. Therefore thou shall not exalt [them].

acv@Job:17:5 @ He who denounces his friends for a prey, even the eyes of his sons shall fail.

acv@Job:17:6 @ But he has made me a byword of the people, and they spit in my face.

acv@Job:17:7 @ My eye also is dim because of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow.

acv@Job:17:8 @ Upright men shall be astonished at this, and the innocent shall stir himself up against the profane.

acv@Job:17:9 @ Yet the righteous shall hold on his way. And he who has clean hands shall grow stronger and stronger.

acv@Job:17:10 @ But as for you all, come on now again, and I shall not find a wise man among you.

acv@Job:17:11 @ My days are past. my purposes are broken off, even the thoughts of my heart.

acv@Job:17:12 @ They change the night into day. The light, [they say], is near to the darkness.

acv@Job:17:13 @ If I look for Sheol as my house, if I have spread my couch in the darkness,

acv@Job:17:14 @ if I have said to corruption, Thou are my father, to the worm, My mother, and my sister,

acv@Job:17:15 @ where then is my hope? And as for my hope, who shall see it?

acv@Job:17:16 @ It shall go down to the bars of Sheol when once there is rest in the dust.
