nkjv@Job:19:1 @ Then Job answered and said:

nkjv@Job:19:2 @ "How long will you torment my soul, And break me in pieces with words?

nkjv@Job:19:3 @ These ten times you have reproached me; You are not ashamed that you have wronged me.

nkjv@Job:19:4 @ And if indeed I have erred, My error remains with me.

nkjv@Job:19:5 @ If indeed you exalt yourselves against me, And plead my disgrace against me,

nkjv@Job:19:6 @ Know then that God has wronged me, And has surrounded me with His net.

nkjv@Job:19:7 @ "If I cry out concerning wrong, I am not heard. If I cry aloud, there is no justice.

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

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

nkjv@Job:19:10 @ He breaks me down on every side, And I am gone; My hope He has uprooted like a tree.

nkjv@Job:19:11 @ He has also kindled His wrath against me, And He counts me as one of His enemies.

nkjv@Job:19:12 @ His troops come together And build up their road against me; They encamp all around my tent.

nkjv@Job:19:13 @ "He has removed my brothers far from me, And my acquaintances are completely estranged from me.

nkjv@Job:19:14 @ My relatives have failed, And my close friends have forgotten me.

nkjv@Job:19:15 @ Those who dwell in my house, and my maidservants, Count me as a stranger; I am an alien in their sight.

nkjv@Job:19:16 @ I call my servant, but he gives no answer; I beg him with my mouth.

nkjv@Job:19:17 @ My breath is offensive to my wife, And I am repulsive to the children of my own body.

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

nkjv@Job:19:19 @ All my close friends abhor me, And those whom I love have turned against me.

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

nkjv@Job:19:21 @ "Have pity on me, have pity on me, O you my friends, For the hand of God has struck me!

nkjv@Job:19:22 @ Why do you persecute me as God does, And are not satisfied with my flesh?

nkjv@Job:19:23 @ "Oh, that my words were written! Oh, that they were inscribed in a book!

nkjv@Job:19:24 @ That they were engraved on a rock With an iron pen and lead, forever!

nkjv@Job:19:25 @ For I know that my Redeemer lives, And He shall stand at last on the earth;

nkjv@Job:19:26 @ And after my skin is destroyed, this I know, That in my flesh I shall see God,

nkjv@Job:19:27 @ Whom I shall see for myself, And my eyes shall behold, and not another. How my heart yearns within me!

nkjv@Job:19:28 @ If you should say, "How shall we persecute him?'-- Since the root of the matter is found in me,

nkjv@Job:19:29 @ Be afraid of the sword for yourselves; For wrath brings the punishment of the sword, That you may know there is a judgment."
