acv - 19

acv@Job:19:1 @ Then Job answered, and said,

acv@Job:19:2 @ How long will ye vex my soul, and break me in pieces with words?

acv@Job:19:3 @ These ten times ye have reproached me. Ye are not ashamed that ye deal hardly with me.

acv@Job:19:4 @ And be it indeed that I have erred, my error remains with myself.

acv@Job:19:5 @ If indeed ye will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach,

acv@Job:19:6 @ know now that God has subverted me, and has encompassed me with his net.

acv@Job:19:7 @ Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard. I cry for help, but there is no justice.

acv@Job:19:8 @ He has walled up my way that I cannot pass, and has set darkness in my paths.

acv@Job:19:9 @ He has stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head.

acv@Job:19:10 @ He has broken me down on every side, and I am gone. And he has plucked up my hope like a tree.

acv@Job:19:11 @ He has also kindled his wrath against me. And he considers me to him as his adversaries.

acv@Job:19:12 @ His troops come on together, and cast up their way against me, and encamp round about my tent.

acv@Job:19:13 @ He has put my brothers far from me, and my acquaintances are wholly estranged from me.

acv@Job:19:14 @ My kinsfolk have failed, and my familiar friends have forgotten me.

acv@Job:19:15 @ Those who dwell in my house, and my maids, reckon me for a stranger; I am an alien in their sight.

acv@Job:19:16 @ I call to my servant, and he gives me no answer. I entreat him with my mouth.

acv@Job:19:17 @ My breath is strange to my wife, and my supplication to the sons of my own mother.

acv@Job:19:18 @ Even young children despise me. If I arise, they speak against me.

acv@Job:19:19 @ All my familiar friends abhor me, and those whom I loved are turned against me.

acv@Job:19:20 @ My bone cleaves to my skin and to my flesh, and I have escaped with the skin of my teeth.

acv@Job:19:21 @ Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends, for the hand of God has touched me.

acv@Job:19:22 @ Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?

acv@Job:19:23 @ O that my words were now written! O that they were inscribed in a book,

acv@Job:19:24 @ that they were engraved in the rock forever with an iron pen and lead!

acv@Job:19:25 @ But as for me I know that my Redeemer lives, and at last he will stand up upon the earth.

acv@Job:19:26 @ And after my skin, this [body], is destroyed, then outside my flesh I shall see God,

acv@Job:19:27 @ whom I, even I, shall see on my side, and my eyes shall behold, and not as a stranger. My heart is consumed within me.

acv@Job:19:28 @ If ye say, How we will persecute him! And that the root of the matter is found in me,

acv@Job:19:29 @ be ye afraid of the sword. For wrath [brings] the punishments of the sword, that ye may know there is a judgment.
