ukjv@Job:30:1 @ But now they that are younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I would have disdained to have set with the dogs of my flock.

ukjv@Job:30:2 @ Yea, whereto might the strength of their hands profit me, in whom old age was perished?

ukjv@Job:30:3 @ For lack and famine they were solitary; fleeing into the wilderness in former time desolate and waste.

ukjv@Job:30:4 @ Who cut up mallows by the bushes, and juniper roots for their food.

ukjv@Job:30:5 @ They were driven forth from among men, (they cried after them as after a thief;)

ukjv@Job:30:6 @ To dwell in the cliffs of the valleys, in caves of the earth, and in the rocks.

ukjv@Job:30:7 @ Among the bushes they brayed; under the nettles they were gathered together.

ukjv@Job:30:8 @ They were children of fools, yea, children of base men: they were viler than the earth.

ukjv@Job:30:9 @ And now am I their song, yea, I am their byword.

ukjv@Job:30:10 @ They detest me, they flee far from me, and spare not to spit in my face.

ukjv@Job:30:11 @ Because he has loosed my cord, and afflicted me, they have also let loose the bridle before me.

ukjv@Job:30:12 @ Upon my right hand rise the youth; they push away my feet, and they raise up against me the ways of their destruction.

ukjv@Job:30:13 @ They ruin my path, they set forward my calamity, they have no helper.

ukjv@Job:30:14 @ They came upon me as a wide breaking in of waters: in the desolation they rolled themselves upon me.

ukjv@Job:30:15 @ Terrors are turned upon me: they pursue my soul as the wind: and my welfare passes away as a cloud.

ukjv@Job:30:16 @ And now my soul is poured out upon me; the days of affliction have taken hold upon me.

ukjv@Job:30:17 @ My bones are pierced in me in the night season: and my sinews take no rest.

ukjv@Job:30:18 @ By the great force of my disease is my garment changed: it binds me about as the collar of my coat.

ukjv@Job:30:19 @ He has cast me into the mire, and I am become like dust and ashes.

ukjv@Job:30:20 @ I cry unto you, and you do not hear me: I stand up, and you regard me not.

ukjv@Job:30:21 @ You are become cruel to me: with your strong hand you oppose yourself against me.

ukjv@Job:30:22 @ You lift me up to the wind; you cause me to ride upon it, and dissolve my substance.

ukjv@Job:30:23 @ For I know that you will bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living.

ukjv@Job:30:24 @ Nevertheless he will not stretch out his hand to the grave, though they cry in his destruction.

ukjv@Job:30:25 @ Did not I weep for him that was in trouble? was not my soul grieved for the poor?

ukjv@Job:30:26 @ When I looked for good, then evil came unto me: and when I waited for light, there came darkness.

ukjv@Job:30:27 @ My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me.

ukjv@Job:30:28 @ I went mourning without the sun: I stood up, and I cried in the congregation.

ukjv@Job:30:29 @ I am a brother to dragons, and a companion to owls.

ukjv@Job:30:30 @ My skin is black upon me, and my bones are burned with heat.

ukjv@Job:30:31 @ My harp also is turned to mourning, and my organ into the voice of them that weep.

Job 30
