< Job 19 >

1 And Job made answer and said,
And he answered Job and he said.
2 How long will you make my life bitter, crushing me with words?
Until when? will you torment! self my and will you crush? me with words.
3 Ten times now you have made sport of me; it gives you no sense of shame to do me wrong.
This ten times you have insulted me not you have been ashamed you have ill-treated me.
4 And, truly, if I have been in error, the effect of my error is only on myself.
And even truly I have erred with me it lodges error my.
5 If you make yourselves great against me, using my punishment as an argument against me,
If truly above me you will magnify yourselves and you may argue on me disgrace my.
6 Be certain that it is God who has done me wrong, and has taken me in his net.
Know then that God he has wronged me and net his over me he has closed.
7 Truly, I make an outcry against the violent man, but there is no answer: I give a cry for help, but no one takes up my cause.
There! I cry out violence and not I am answered I cry for help and there not [is] justice.
8 My way is walled up by him so that I may not go by: he has made my roads dark.
Way my he has walled up and not I will pass and on paths my darkness he puts.
9 He has put off my glory from me, and taken the crown from my head.
Honor my from on me he has stripped off and he has removed [the] crown of head my.
10 I am broken down by him on every side, and I am gone; my hope is uprooted like a tree.
He has torn down me all around and I have gone and he has uprooted like a tree hope my.
11 His wrath is burning against me, and I am to him as one of his haters.
And he has kindled towards me anger his and he has considered me himself like foes his.
12 His armies come on together, they make their road high against me, and put up their tents round mine.
Together - they have come troops his and they have piled up on me way their and they have encamped all around tent my.
13 He has taken my brothers far away from me; they have seen my fate and have become strange to me.
Brothers my from with me he has put far away and acquaintances my surely they have become estranged from me.
14 My relations and my near friends have given me up, and those living in my house have put me out of their minds.
They have ceased kindred my and acquaintances my they have forgotten me.
15 I am strange to my women-servants, and seem to them as one from another country.
[the] sojourners of House my and female servants my to a stranger they consider me a foreigner I have become in view their.
16 At my cry my servant gives me no answer, and I have to make a prayer to him.
To servant my I call and not he answers with mouth my I seek favor to him.
17 My breath is strange to my wife, and I am disgusting to the offspring of my mother's body.
Breath my it is loathsome to wife my and I am repulsive to [the] sons of womb my.
18 Even young children have no respect for me; when I get up their backs are turned on me.
Also young boys they reject me I arise and they spoke against me.
19 All the men of my circle keep away from me; and those dear to me are turned against me.
They abhor me all [the] men of council my and whom I love they have turned against me.
20 My bones are joined to my skin, and I have got away with my flesh in my teeth.
On skin my and on flesh my it clings bone my and I have escaped! with [the] skin of teeth my.
21 Have pity on me, have pity on me, O my friends! for the hand of God is on me.
Show favor to me show favor to me O you friends my for [the] hand of God it has touched me.
22 Why are you cruel to me, like God, for ever saying evil against me?
Why? are you persecuting me like God and from flesh my not are you satisfied?
23 If only my words might be recorded! if they might be put in writing in a book!
Who? will he give then and they will be written down! words my who? will he give on the scroll so they may be inscribed.
24 And with an iron pen and lead be cut into the rock for ever!
With a stylus of iron and lead for ever in the rock they will be engraved!
25 But I am certain that he who will take up my cause is living, and that in time to come he will take his place on the dust;
And I I know vindicator my he lives and last on dust he will stand.
26 And ... without my flesh I will see God;
And after skin my people have struck off this and from flesh my I will see God.
27 Whom I will see on my side, and not as one strange to me. My heart is broken with desire.
Whom I - I will see for myself and own eyes my they will see and not a stranger they are faint kidneys my in bosom my.
28 If you say, How cruel we will be to him! because the root of sin is clearly in him:
If you will say what? will we persecute him and [the] root of [the] matter it has been found in me.
29 Be in fear of the sword, for the sword is the punishment for such things, so that you may be certain that there is a judge.
Be afraid yourselves - of [the] sword for rage [is] iniquities of [the] sword so that you may know! (that a judgment. *Q(k)*)
