< Job 16 >
1 And Job made answer and said,
And he answered Job and he said.
2 Such things have frequently come to my ears: you are comforters who only give trouble.
I have heard like these [things] many [are] comforters of trouble all of you.
3 May words which are like the wind be stopped? or what is troubling you to make answer to them?
¿ [does] an end [belong] to Words of wind or what? is it making sick you that you will answer.
4 It would not be hard for me to say such things if your souls were in my soul's place; joining words together against you, and shaking my head at you:
Also - I like you I will speak if there [were] self your in place of self my I will make join on you words and I will shake on you with head my.
5 I might give you strength with my mouth, and not keep back the comfort of my lips.
I will strengthen you with mouth my and [the] condolence of lips my it will restrain.
6 If I say what is in my mind, my pain becomes no less: and if I keep quiet, how much of it goes from me?
If I will speak not it will be restrained pain my and I will cease what? from me will it go.
7 But now he has overcome me with weariness and fear, and I am in the grip of all my trouble.
Nevertheless now he has made weary me you have devastated all company my.
8 It has come up as a witness against me, and the wasting of my flesh makes answer to my face.
And you have seized me a witness it has become and it has risen up on me leanness my in face my it testifies.
9 I am broken by his wrath, and his hate has gone after me; he has made his teeth sharp against me: my haters are looking on me with cruel eyes;
Anger his it has torn [me] - and it has assailed me he has gnashed towards me with teeth his opponent my - he sharpens eyes his to me.
10 Their mouths are open wide against me; the blows of his bitter words are falling on my face; all of them come together in a mass against me.
People have opened wide on me - mouth their in scorn they have struck cheeks my together on me they mass themselves!
11 God gives me over to the power of sinners, sending me violently into the hands of evil-doers.
He delivers up me God to an unjust one and on [the] hands of wicked [people] he casts me.
12 I was in comfort, but I have been broken up by his hands; he has taken me by the neck, shaking me to bits; he has put me up as a mark for his arrows.
At ease I was - and he smashed me and he took hold on neck my and he shattered me and he set up me of him to a target.
13 His bowmen come round about me; their arrows go through my body without mercy; my life is drained out on the earth.
They surround me - archers his he splits open kidneys my and not he has compassion he pours out to the ground gall my.
14 I am broken with wound after wound; he comes rushing on me like a man of war.
He breaks through me a breach on [the] face of a breach he runs on me like a warrior.
15 I have made haircloth the clothing of my skin, and my horn is rolled in the dust.
Sackcloth I have sewed over skin my and I have inserted in the dust horn my.
16 My face is red with weeping, and my eyes are becoming dark;
Face my (they are reddened *Q(K)*) from weeping and [is] on eyelids my deep darkness.
17 Though my hands have done no violent acts, and my prayer is clean.
On not violence [is] in hands my and prayer my [is] pure.
18 O earth, let not my blood be covered, and let my cry have no resting-place!
O earth may not you cover blood my and may not it belong a place to outcry my.
19 Even now my witness is in heaven, and the supporter of my cause is on high.
Also now there! [is] in the heavens witness my and witness my [is] in high places.
20 My friends make sport of me; to God my eyes are weeping,
[are] scoffing at Me companions my to God it has wept eye my.
21 So that he may give decision for a man in his cause with God, and between a son of man and his neighbour.
And he may argue for a man with God and a child of humankind for companion his.
22 For in a short time I will take the journey from which I will not come back.
For years of number they will come and a way [which] not I will return I will go.
