< Job 19 >

1 Then Job answered and said,
And he answered Job and he said.
2 How long will you vex my soul, and destroy me with words? only know that the Lord has dealt with me thus.
Until when? will you torment! self my and will you crush? me with words.
3 You speak against me; you do not feel for me, but bear hard upon me.
This ten times you have insulted me not you have been ashamed you have ill-treated me.
4 Yes verily, I have erred in truth, (but the error abides with myself) in having spoken words which it was not right [to speak]; and my words err, and are unreasonable.
And even truly I have erred with me it lodges error my.
5 But alas! for you magnify yourselves against me, and insult me with reproach.
If truly above me you will magnify yourselves and you may argue on me disgrace my.
6 Know then that it is the Lord that has troubled [me], and has raised his bulwark against me.
Know then that God he has wronged me and net his over me he has closed.
7 Behold, I laugh at reproach; I will not speak: [or] I will cry out, but [there is] nowhere judgement.
There! I cry out violence and not I am answered I cry for help and there not [is] justice.
8 I am fenced round about, and can by no means escape: he has set darkness before my face.
Way my he has walled up and not I will pass and on paths my darkness he puts.
9 And he has stripped me of my glory, and has 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 He has torn me around about, and I am gone: and he has cut off my hope like a tree.
He has torn down me all around and I have gone and he has uprooted like a tree hope my.
11 And he has dreadfully handled me in anger, and has counted me for an enemy.
And he has kindled towards me anger his and he has considered me himself like foes his.
12 His troops also came upon me with one accord, liars in wait compassed my ways.
Together - they have come troops his and they have piled up on me way their and they have encamped all around tent my.
13 My brethren have stood aloof from me; they have recognised strangers [rather] than me: and my friends have become pitiless.
Brothers my from with me he has put far away and acquaintances my surely they have become estranged from me.
14 My nearest of kin have not acknowledged me, and they that knew my name, have forgotten me.
They have ceased kindred my and acquaintances my they have forgotten me.
15 [As for] my household, and my maidservants, I was a stranger before them.
[the] sojourners of House my and female servants my to a stranger they consider me a foreigner I have become in view their.
16 I called my servant, and he listened not; and my mouth entreated [him].
To servant my I call and not he answers with mouth my I seek favor to him.
17 And I implored my wife, and earnestly entreated the sons of my concubines.
Breath my it is loathsome to wife my and I am repulsive to [the] sons of womb my.
18 But they rejected me for ever; whenever I rise up, they speak against me.
Also young boys they reject me I arise and they spoke against me.
19 They that saw me abhorred me: the very persons whom I had loved, rose up against me.
They abhor me all [the] men of council my and whom I love they have turned against me.
20 My flesh is corrupt under my skin, and my bones are held 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 Pity me, pity me, O friends; for it is the hand of the Lord that has touched me.
Show favor to me show favor to me O you friends my for [the] hand of God it has touched me.
22 Therefore do you persecute me as also the Lord [does], and are not satisfied with my flesh?
Why? are you persecuting me like God and from flesh my not are you satisfied?
23 For oh that my words were written, and that they were recorded in a book forever,
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 with an iron pen and lead, or graven in the rocks!
With a stylus of iron and lead for ever in the rock they will be engraved!
25 For I know that he is eternal who is about to deliver me,
And I I know vindicator my he lives and last on dust he will stand.
26 [and] to raise up upon the earth my skin that endures these [sufferings]: for these things have been accomplished to me of the Lord;
And after skin my people have struck off this and from flesh my I will see God.
27 which I am conscious of in myself, which mine eye has seen, and not another, but all have been fulfilled to me in [my] bosom.
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 But if you shall also say, What shall we say before him, and [so] find the root of the matter in him?
If you will say what? will we persecute him and [the] root of [the] matter it has been found in me.
29 Do you also beware of deceit: for wrath will come upon transgressors; and then shall they know where their substance is.
Be afraid yourselves - of [the] sword for rage [is] iniquities of [the] sword so that you may know! (that a judgment. *Q(k)*)
