\c 19
|

|
\p
|
|||
|
\v 1 Then Job answered and said,
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 2 “How long will you make me suffer
|
|||
|
\q and break me into pieces with words?
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
\s5
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 3 These ten times you have reproached me;
|
|||
|
\q you are not ashamed that you have treated me harshly.
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 4 If it is indeed true that I have erred,
|
|||
|
\q my error remains my own concern.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
\s5
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 5 If indeed you will boast against me
|
|||
|
\q and convince everyone that I am disgraced,
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 6 then you should know that God has done wrong to me
|
|||
|
\q and has caught me in his net.
|
|||
|
\b
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
\s5
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 7 See, I call out to say that I have been done wrong, but I am not heard;
|
|||
|
\q I call out for help, but there is no justice.
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 8 He has walled up my way so that I cannot pass,
|
|||
|
\q and he has set darkness in my path.
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 9 He has stripped me of my glory,
|
|||
|
\q and he has taken the crown from my head.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
\s5
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 10 He has broken me down on every side, and I am gone;
|
|||
|
\q he has plucked up my hopes like a tree.
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 11 He has also kindled his wrath against me;
|
|||
|
\q he regards me as one of his adversaries.
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 12 His troops come on together;
|
|||
|
\q they cast up siege mounds against me
|
|||
|
\q and encamp around my tent.
|
|||
|
\b
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
\s5
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 13 He has put my brothers far from me;
|
|||
|
\q my acquaintances are wholly alienated from me.
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 14 My kinsfolk have failed me;
|
|||
|
\q my close friends have forgotten me.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
\s5
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 15 Those who once stayed as guests in my house and my female servants regard me as a stranger;
|
|||
|
\q I am an alien in their sight.
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 16 I call to my servant, but he gives me no answer
|
|||
|
\q although I entreat him with my mouth.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
\s5
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 17 My breath is offensive to my wife;
|
|||
|
\q my pleas are loathsome to my own brothers and sisters.
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 18 Even young children despise me;
|
|||
|
\q if I rise to speak, they speak against me.
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 19 All my familiar friends abhor me;
|
|||
|
\q those whom I love have turned against me.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
\s5
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 20 My bones cling to my skin and to my flesh;
|
|||
|
\q I survive only by the skin of my teeth.
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 21 Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, my friends,
|
|||
|
\q for the hand of God has touched me.
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 22 Why do you persecute me as if you were God;
|
|||
|
\q Why are you not satisfied with consuming my flesh?
|
|||
|
\b
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
\s5
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 23 Oh, that my words were now written down!
|
|||
|
\q Oh, that they were inscribed in a book!
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 24 Oh, that with an iron pen and lead
|
|||
|
\q they were engraven in the rock forever!
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
\s5
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 25 But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives,
|
|||
|
\q and that at last he will stand on the earth;
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 26 after my skin, that is, this body, is destroyed,
|
|||
|
\q then in my flesh I will see God.
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 27 I will see him, I myself will see him on my side;
|
|||
|
\q my eyes will see him, and not as a stranger.
|
|||
|
\q My kidneys fail within me.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
\s5
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 28 If you say, ‘How we will persecute him!
|
|||
|
\q The root of his troubles lies in him,’
|
|||
|
\q
|
|||
|
\v 29 then be afraid of the sword,
|
|||
|
\q because wrath brings the punishment of the sword,
|
|||
|
\q so that you may know there is a judgment.”
