kjv - Job:16-17

kjv@Job:16:1 @ Then Job answered and said,

kjv@Job:16:2 @ I have heard many such things: miserable comforters are ye all.

kjv@Job:16:3 @ Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldeneth thee that thou answerest?

kjv@Job:16:4 @ I also could speak as ye do: if your soul were in my soul's stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake mine head at you.

kjv@Job:16:5 @ But I would strengthen you with my mouth, and the moving of my lips should asswage your grief.

kjv@Job:16:6 @ Though I speak, my grief is not asswaged: and though I forbear, what am I eased?

kjv@Job:16:7 @ But now he hath made me weary: thou hast made desolate all my company.

kjv@Job:16:8 @ And thou hast filled me with wrinkles, which is a witness against me: and my leanness rising up in me beareth witness to my face.

kjv@Job:16:9 @ He teareth me in his wrath, who hateth me: he gnasheth upon me with his teeth; mine enemy sharpeneth his eyes upon me.

kjv@Job:16:10 @ They have gaped upon me with their mouth; they have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully; they have gathered themselves together against me.

kjv@Job:16:11 @ God hath delivered me to the ungodly, and turned me over into the hands of the wicked.

kjv@Job:16:12 @ I was at ease, but he hath broken me asunder: he hath also taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces, and set me up for his mark.

kjv@Job:16:13 @ His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground.

kjv@Job:16:14 @ He breaketh me with breach upon breach, he runneth upon me like a giant.

kjv@Job:16:15 @ I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and defiled my horn in the dust.

kjv@Job:16:16 @ My face is foul with weeping, and on my eyelids is the shadow of death;

kjv@Job:16:17 @ Not for any injustice in mine hands: also my prayer is pure.

kjv@Job:16:18 @ O earth, cover not thou my blood, and let my cry have no place.

kjv@Job:16:19 @ Also now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and my record is on high.

kjv@Job:16:20 @ My friends scorn me: but mine eye poureth out tears unto God.

kjv@Job:16:21 @ O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!

kjv@Job:16:22 @ When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return.

kjv@Job:17:1 @ My breath is corrupt, my days are extinct, the graves are ready for me.

kjv@Job:17:2 @ Are there not mockers with me? and doth not mine eye continue in their provocation?

kjv@Job:17:3 @ Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who is he that will strike hands with me?

kjv@Job:17:4 @ For thou hast hid their heart from understanding: therefore shalt thou not exalt them.

kjv@Job:17:5 @ He that speaketh flattery to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail.

kjv@Job:17:6 @ He hath made me also a byword of the people; and aforetime I was as a tabret.

kjv@Job:17:7 @ Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow.

kjv@Job:17:8 @ Upright men shall be astonied at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite.

kjv@Job:17:9 @ The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger.

kjv@Job:17:10 @ But as for you all, do ye return, and come now: for I cannot find one wise man among you.

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

kjv@Job:17:12 @ They change the night into day: the light is short because of darkness.

kjv@Job:17:13 @ If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness.

kjv@Job:17:14 @ I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister.

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

kjv@Job:17:16 @ They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when our rest together is in the dust.

kjv@Job:18:1 @ Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
