Job 17
1 Spirit my it is broken days my they are extinguished grave [belong] to me.
"My spirit is consumed. My days are extinct, And the grave is ready for me.
2 Not mockeries [are] with me and on rebelling they may it dwell eye my.
Surely there are mockers with me. My eye dwells on their provocation.
3 Make! please stand surety for me with yourself who? that to hand my will he strike himself.
"Now give a pledge, be collateral for me with yourself. Who is there who will strike hands with me?
4 For heart their you have kept from understanding there-fore not you will exalt [them].
For you have hidden their heart from understanding, Therefore you shall not exalt them.
5 For a share he tells friends and [the] eyes of children his they will fail.
He who denounces his friends for a prey, Even the eyes of his children shall fail.
6 And he has set me to use a proverb peoples and a spitting to [the] face I am.
"But he has made me a byword of the people. They spit in my face.
7 And it has grown dim from grief eye my and members my [are] like shadow all of them.
My eye also is dim by reason of sorrow. All my members are as a shadow.
8 They are appalled upright [people] on this and [the] innocent on [the] godless he will rouse himself.
Upright men shall be astonished at this. The innocent shall stir up himself against the godless.
9 And he may hold [the] righteous way his and [the] clean of hands he will increase strength.
Yet shall the righteous hold on his way. He who has clean hands shall grow stronger and stronger.
10 And but all of them you will return and come please and not I will find among you a wise [person].
But as for you all, come on now again; I shall not find a wise man among you.
11 Days my they have passed plans my they have been torn apart [the] wishes of heart my.
My days are past, my plans are broken off, as are the thoughts of my heart.
12 Night into day they make light [is] near from before darkness.
They change the night into day, saying 'The light is near' in the presence of darkness.
If I look for Sheol as my house, if I have spread my couch in the darkness, (Sheol h7585)
14 To the pit I have called out [are] father my you O mother my and sister my to the maggot.
If I have said to corruption, 'You are my father;' to the worm, 'My mother,' and 'my sister;'
15 And where? then [is] hope my and hope my who? will he observe it.
where then is my hope? As for my hope, who shall see it?
