< Job 19 >

1 Then answered Job, and said,
And he answered Job and he said.
2 How long will ye grieve my soul, and crush me with words?
Until when? will you torment! self my and will you crush? me with words.
3 These ten times have ye reproached me: ye are not ashamed when ye show yourselves as strangers to me.
This ten times you have insulted me not you have been ashamed you have ill-treated me.
4 Yea, if it be indeed that I have erred, let my error remain with myself.
And even truly I have erred with me it lodges error my.
5 But if indeed ye wish to magnify yourselves above me, and to prove against me my disgrace:
If truly above me you will magnify yourselves and you may argue on me disgrace my.
6 Then know for certain that God hath bent me down, and hath laid his net all around me.
Know then that God he has wronged me and net his over me he has closed.
7 Behold, I cry out concerning the violence [done me], but I am not answered: I entreat aloud, but there is no justice.
There! I cry out violence and not I am answered I cry for help and there not [is] justice.
8 My road hath he fenced up, so that I cannot pass out; and on my paths he placeth darkness.
Way my he has walled up and not I will pass and on paths my darkness he puts.
9 My glory hath he stripped from me, and removed the crown of my head.
Honor my from on me he has stripped off and he has removed [the] crown of head my.
10 He hath pulled me down on every side, and I am going hence; and he hath rooted up like a tree my hope.
He has torn down me all around and I have gone and he has uprooted like a tree hope my.
11 He hath also kindled against me his wrath, and he counteth me with himself as one of his adversaries.
And he has kindled towards me anger his and he has considered me himself like foes his.
12 Altogether come on his troops, and make level against me their way, and encamp round about my tent.
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 brothers hath he removed far from me, and my acquaintance are entirely estranged from me.
Brothers my from with me he has put far away and acquaintances my surely they have become estranged from me.
14 My near of kin have withdrawn, and those befriended by me have forgotten me.
They have ceased kindred my and acquaintances my they have forgotten me.
15 Ye that sojourn in my house, and my maid-servants, regard me as a stranger: an alien am I become in their eyes.
[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 call for my servant, but he will not answer, though I were to entreat him with my mouth.
To servant my I call and not he answers with mouth my I seek favor to him.
17 My breath is become nauseous to my wife, and my caressing, to the children of my own body.
Breath my it is loathsome to wife my and I am repulsive to [the] sons of womb my.
18 Yea, children even despise me: I rise up, but they speak against me.
Also young boys they reject me I arise and they spoke against me.
19 All that have had my confidence abominate me; and those whom I have loved are turned against me.
They abhor me all [the] men of council my and whom I love they have turned against me.
20 To my skin and to my flesh my bones do cleave, and I must sustain myself with the gums of my teeth.
On skin my and on flesh my it clings bone my and I have escaped! with [the] skin of teeth my.
21 Spare me, spare me, O ye, my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me.
Show favor to me show favor to me O you friends my for [the] hand of God it has touched me.
22 Why will ye persecute me as God [hath done], and will never be satisfied with my flesh?
Why? are you persecuting me like God and from flesh my not are you satisfied?
23 Oh who would but grant, that my words might be written down! oh who would grant that they were entered 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 That they were hewn with an iron pen and [blackened with] lead for eternity in the hard rock!
With a stylus of iron and lead for ever in the rock they will be engraved!
25 And well I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he will remain as the last after the creatures of the dust [are passed away];
And I I know vindicator my he lives and last on dust he will stand.
26 And after my skin is cut to pieces will this be: and then freed from my body shall I behold God;
And after skin my people have struck off this and from flesh my I will see God.
27 Whom I shall myself behold to my happiness, and whom my eyes will see, and not as a stranger, [when even] my reins are consumed within 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 ye should say, How will we pursue him? seeing the root of the matter is found in me:
If you will say what? will we persecute him and [the] root of [the] matter it has been found in me.
29 Then have dread for yourselves of the sword; for the wrath [which ye excite] is an iniquity that bringeth the sword; in order that ye may know there is one that judgeth [in the world].
Be afraid yourselves - of [the] sword for rage [is] iniquities of [the] sword so that you may know! (that a judgment. *Q(k)*)
