Job 19




mkjv@Job:19:1 @ And Job answered and said,

mkjv@Job:19:2 @ How long will you torment my soul and break me in pieces with words?

mkjv@Job:19:3 @ [And] this, ten times you have blamed me; you are not ashamed that you have wronged me.

mkjv@Job:19:4 @ And [if] indeed I have erred, my error remains with me.

mkjv@Job:19:5 @ If indeed you magnify yourself against me, and plead against me my misery,

mkjv@Job:19:6 @ know now that God has overthrown me, and His net has closed on me.

mkjv@Job:19:7 @ Behold, I cry out, Violence! And I am not answered. I cry aloud, but there is no justice.

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

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

mkjv@Job:19:10 @ He has broken me on every side, and I am gone, and He has uprooted my hope like a tree.

mkjv@Job:19:11 @ He has also kindled His wrath against me, and to Himself He counts me as His enemy.

mkjv@Job:19:12 @ His troops come together and raise up their way against me, and camp around my tent.

mkjv@Job:19:13 @ He has put my brothers far from me, and my friends have truly turned away from me.

mkjv@Job:19:14 @ My people have fallen away, and my familiar friends have forgotten me.

mkjv@Job:19:15 @ Those who dwell in my house, and my slave-girls, count me as a stranger; I am a foreigner in their sight.

mkjv@Job:19:16 @ I called my servant, and he gave no answer; I must beg him with my mouth.

mkjv@Job:19:17 @ My breath is hated by my wife, and I must beg to the sons of my [mother's] womb.

mkjv@Job:19:18 @ Even young children despise me; I arise, and they speak against me.

mkjv@Job:19:19 @ All the men of my counsel detest me, even this one I loved has turned against me.

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

mkjv@Job:19:21 @ Have pity on me! Have pity on me, my friends! For the hand of God has touched me.

mkjv@Job:19:22 @ Why do you, like God, persecute me and are not satisfied with my flesh?

mkjv@Job:19:23 @ Oh that my words were now written! Oh that they were engraved in a book!

mkjv@Job:19:24 @ [Oh that] they were cut with an iron pen and lead in the rock forever!

mkjv@Job:19:25 @ For I know [that] my Redeemer lives, and He shall rise on the earth at the last;

mkjv@Job:19:26 @ and even after they corrupt my skin, yet this: in my flesh I shall see God,

mkjv@Job:19:27 @ whom I shall see for myself, and my eyes shall behold, and not a stranger's; [though] My heart be exhausted in my bosom.

mkjv@Job:19:28 @ For you ought to say, Why do we persecute him, since the root of the matter is found in me?

mkjv@Job:19:29 @ Fear for yourselves because of the sword; for wrath [brings] the punishments of the sword, so that you may know [there is] a judgment.
