18_JOB_19_01 Then Job answered And said ,
18_JOB_19_02 how long will ye vex my soul , And break me in pieces with words ?
18_JOB_19_03 These ten times have ye reproached me : ye are not ashamed [ that ] ye make yourselves strange to me .
18_JOB_19_04 And be it indeed [ that ] I have erred , mine error remaineth with myself .
18_JOB_19_05 if indeed ye will magnify [ yourselves ] against me , And plead against me my reproach :
18_JOB_19_06 know now that God hath overthrown me , And hath compassed me with his net .
18_JOB_19_07 behold , I cry out of wrong , but I am not heard : I cry aloud , but [ there Is ] no judgment .
18_JOB_19_08 he hath fenced up my way that I cannot pass , And he hath set darkness in my paths .
18_JOB_19_09 he hath stripped me of my glory , And taken the crown [ from ] my head .
18_JOB_19_10 he hath destroyed me on every side , And I am gone : And mine hope hath he removed like A tree .
18_JOB_19_11 he hath also kindled his wrath against me , And he counteth me unto him as [ one of ] his enemies .
18_JOB_19_12 his troops come together , And raise up their way against me , And encamp round about my tabernacle .
18_JOB_19_13 he hath put my brethren far from me , And mine acquaintance are Verily estranged from me .
18_JOB_19_14 my kinsfolk have failed , And my familiar friends have forgotten me .
18_JOB_19_15 they that dwell in mine house , And my maids , count me for A stranger : I am an alien in their sight .
18_JOB_19_16 I called my servant , And he gave [ me ] no answer ; I entreated him with my mouth .
18_JOB_19_17 my breath Is strange to my wife , though I entreated for the children's [ sake ] of mine own body .
18_JOB_19_18 yea , young children despised me ; I arose , And they spake against me .
18_JOB_19_19 all my inward friends abhorred me : And they whom I loved are turned against me .
18_JOB_19_20 my bone cleaveth to my skin And to my flesh , And I am escaped with the skin of my teeth .
18_JOB_19_21 have pity upon me , have pity upon me , O ye my friends ; for the hand of God hath touched me .
18_JOB_19_22 why do ye persecute me as God , And are not satisfied with my flesh ?
18_JOB_19_23 Oh that my words were now written ! Oh that they were printed in A book !
18_JOB_19_24 that they were graven with an iron pen And lead in the rock for ever !
18_JOB_19_25 for I know [ that ] my Redeemer liveth , And [ that ] he shall stand at the latter [ day ] upon the earth :
18_JOB_19_26 And [ though ] after my skin [ worms ] destroy this [ body ] , yet in my flesh shall I see God :
18_JOB_19_27 whom I shall see for myself , And mine eyes shall behold , And not another ; [ though ] my reins be consumed within me .
18_JOB_19_28 but ye should say , why persecute we him , seeing the root of the matter Is found in me ?
18_JOB_19_29 be ye afraid of the sword : for wrath [ bringeth ] the punishments of the sword , that ye may know [ there Is ] A judgment .
