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My near of kin have withdrawn, and those befriended by me have forgotten me.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