# Chapter 19
|
||||
1. Then Job answered and said:
|
||||
|
||||
2. "How long will you torment me
|
||||
and break me in pieces with words?
|
||||
|
||||
3. These ten times you have cast reproach upon me;
|
||||
are you not ashamed to wrong me?
|
||||
|
||||
4. And even if it be true that I have erred,
|
||||
my error remains with myself.
|
||||
|
||||
5. If indeed you magnify yourselves against me
|
||||
and make my disgrace an argument against me,
|
||||
|
||||
6. know then that God has put me in the wrong
|
||||
and closed his net about me.
|
||||
|
||||
7. Behold, I cry out, 'Violence!' but I am not answered;
|
||||
I call for help, but there is no justice.
|
||||
|
||||
8. He has walled up my way, so that I cannot pass,
|
||||
and he has set darkness upon my paths.
|
||||
|
||||
9. He has stripped from me my glory
|
||||
and taken the crown from my head.
|
||||
|
||||
10. He breaks me down on every side, and I am gone,
|
||||
and my hope has he pulled up like a tree.
|
||||
|
||||
11. He has kindled his wrath against me
|
||||
and counts me as his adversary.
|
||||
|
||||
12. His troops come on together;
|
||||
they have cast up their siege ramp against me
|
||||
and encamp around my tent.
|
||||
|
||||
13. "He has put my brothers far from me,
|
||||
and those who knew me are wholly estranged from me.
|
||||
|
||||
14. My relatives have failed me,
|
||||
my close friends have forgotten me.
|
||||
|
||||
15. The guests in my house and my maidservants count me as a stranger;
|
||||
I have become a foreigner in their eyes.
|
||||
|
||||
16. I call to my servant, but he gives me no answer;
|
||||
I must plead with him with my mouth for mercy.
|
||||
|
||||
17. My breath is strange to my wife,
|
||||
and I am a stench to the children of my own mother.
|
||||
|
||||
18. Even young children despise me;
|
||||
when I rise they talk against me.
|
||||
|
||||
19. All my intimate friends abhor me,
|
||||
and those whom I loved have turned against me.
|
||||
|
||||
20. My bones stick to my skin and to my flesh,
|
||||
and I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.
|
||||
|
||||
21. Have mercy on me, have mercy on me, O you my friends,
|
||||
for the hand of God has touched me!
|
||||
|
||||
22. Why do you, like God, pursue me?
|
||||
Why are you not satisfied with my flesh?
|
||||
|
||||
23. "Oh that my words were written!
|
||||
Oh that they were inscribed in a book!
|
||||
|
||||
24. Oh that with an iron pen and lead
|
||||
they were engraved in the rock forever!
|
||||
|
||||
25. For I know that my Redeemer lives,
|
||||
and at the last he will stand upon the earth.
|
||||
|
||||
26. And after my skin has been thus destroyed,
|
||||
yet in my flesh I shall see God,
|
||||
|
||||
27. whom I shall see for myself,
|
||||
and my eyes shall behold, and not another.
|
||||
My heart faints within me!
|
||||
|
||||
28. If you say, 'How we will pursue him!'
|
||||
and, 'The root of the matter is found in him,'
|
||||
|
||||
29. be afraid of the sword,
|
||||
for wrath brings the punishment of the sword,
|
||||
that you may know there is a judgment."
