Job 16:18-17:16
Job 16:18-17:16
-
18"O earth, cover not my blood, and let my cry find no resting place.
-
19Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and he who testifies for me is on high.
-
20My friends scorn me; my eye pours out tears to God,
-
21that he would argue the case of a man with God, as a son of man does with his neighbor.
-
22For when a few years have come I shall go the way from which I shall not return.
-
1"My spirit is broken; my days are extinct; the graveyard is ready for me.
-
2Surely there are mockers about me, and my eye dwells on their provocation.
-
3"Lay down a pledge for me with yourself; who is there who will put up security for me?
-
4Since you have closed their hearts to understanding, therefore you will not let them triumph.
-
5He who informs against his friends to get a share of their property-- the eyes of his children will fail.
-
6"He has made me a byword of the peoples, and I am one before whom men spit.
-
7My eye has grown dim from vexation, and all my members are like a shadow.
-
8The upright are appalled at this, and the innocent stirs himself up against the godless.
-
9Yet the righteous holds to his way, and he who has clean hands grows stronger and stronger.
-
10But you, come on again, all of you, and I shall not find a wise man among you.
-
11My days are past; my plans are broken off, the desires of my heart.
-
12They make night into day: 'The light,' they say, 'is near to the darkness.'
-
13If I hope for Sheol as my house, if I make my bed in darkness,
-
14if I say to the pit, 'You are my father,' and to the worm, 'My mother,' or 'My sister,'
-
15where then is my hope? Who will see my hope?
-
16Will it go down to the bars of Sheol? Shall we descend together into the dust?"
