Job - ch 19 v 1 - 20
- Then Job answered and said,
- How long will ye vex my soul, and break me in pieces with words?
- These ten times have ye reproached me: ye are not ashamed that ye make yourselves strange to me.
- And be it indeed that I have erred, my error remaineth with myself.
- If indeed ye will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach:
- Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath encompassed me with his net.
- Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry aloud, but there is no judgment.
- He hath fenced up my way that I cannot pass, and he hath set darkness in my paths.
- He hath stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head.
- He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and my hope hath he removed like a tree.
- He hath also kindled his wrath against me, and he counteth me to him as one of his enemies.
- His troops come together, and raise up their way against me, and encamp around my tabernacle.
- He hath put my brethren far from me, and my acquaintance are verily estranged from me.
- My kinsmen have failed, and my familiar friends have forgotten me.
- They that dwell in my house, and my maids, count me for a stranger: I am an alien in their sight.
- I called my servant, and he gave me no answer; I entreated him with my mouth.
- My breath is strange to my wife, though I entreated for the children's sake of my own body.
- Yes, young children despised me; I arose, and they spoke against me.
- All my intimate friends abhorred me: and they whom I loved are turned against me.
- My bone cleaveth to my skin and to my flesh, and I have escaped with the skin of my teeth.
