< Job 16 >
And he answered Job and he said.
2 “I've heard all this before. You are comforters who just cause trouble!
I have heard like these [things] many [are] comforters of trouble all of you.
3 Will your windy speeches never cease? What's bothering you that you have to answer me?
¿ [does] an end [belong] to Words of wind or what? is it making sick you that you will answer.
4 I could talk like you do if you were in my place, stringing words together to criticize you, ridiculing you with a toss of my head.
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 could build you up by my mouth speaking words; the movement of my lips would ease your pain.
I will strengthen you with mouth my and [the] condolence of lips my it will restrain.
6 For me, if I speak it doesn't ease my pain, and if I don't speak the pain is still there.
If I will speak not it will be restrained pain my and I will cease what? from me will it go.
7 God, you have worn me out. You have destroyed my whole family.
Nevertheless now he has made weary me you have devastated all company my.
8 You have made me shrivel up, which is a witness against me; my thin body testifies against me.
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 He has torn me apart in his anger; in his hostility he has gnashed his teeth at me; my enemy pierces me with his fierce look.
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 People stare at me with their mouths wide open, they slap me on my cheeks to mock me, they crowd around me to attack me.
People have opened wide on me - mouth their in scorn they have struck cheeks my together on me they mass themselves!
11 God has handed me over to evil people; he has thrown me into their hands.
He delivers up me God to an unjust one and on [the] hands of wicked [people] he casts me.
12 I was living in peace and he smashed me to pieces. He grabbed me by the neck and dashed me to pieces. He set me up as his target.
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 archers surround me. His arrows pierce my kidneys without mercy. He pours out my gall on the ground.
They surround me - archers his he splits open kidneys my and not he has compassion he pours out to the ground gall my.
14 Like a wall he breaks me down, breach upon breach, rushing at me like a warrior.
He breaks through me a breach on [the] face of a breach he runs on me like a warrior.
15 I have sown sackcloth to cover my skin; my strength lies broken in the dust.
Sackcloth I have sewed over skin my and I have inserted in the dust horn my.
16 My face is red from crying and dark shadows surround my eyes,
Face my (they are reddened *Q(K)*) from weeping and [is] on eyelids my deep darkness.
17 although I have done nothing wrong and my prayer is pure.
On not violence [is] in hands my and prayer my [is] pure.
18 Earth, do not cover up my blood. May my cry find no place to hide.
O earth may not you cover blood my and may not it belong a place to outcry my.
19 Look, right now my witness is in heaven; the one who speaks for me is on high.
Also now there! [is] in the heavens witness my and witness my [is] in high places.
20 My friends scorn me, but my eyes pour out tears to God.
[are] scoffing at Me companions my to God it has wept eye my.
21 I want my witness to speak for me with God as someone does for their friend.
And he may argue for a man with God and a child of humankind for companion his.
22 For in a few short years I shall go down that road from which I shall not return.
For years of number they will come and a way [which] not I will return I will go.
