1 # Then Job <0347> answered <06030> (8799) and said <0559> (8799),
2 I have heard <08085> (8804) many such things <07227>: miserable <05999> comforters <05162> (8764) are ye all.
3 Shall vain <07307> words <01697> have an end <07093>? or what emboldeneth <04834> (8686) thee that thou answerest <06030> (8799)?
4 I also could speak <01696> (8762) as ye do: if <03863> your soul <05315> were <03426> in my soul's <05315> stead, I could heap up <02266> (8686) words <04405> against you, and shake <05128> (8686) mine head <07218> at <01119> you.
5 But I would strengthen <0553> (8762) you with <01119> my mouth <06310>, and the moving <05205> of my lips <08193> should asswage <02820> (8799) your grief.
6 # Though I speak <01696> (8762), my grief <03511> is not asswaged <02820> (8735): and though I forbear <02308> (8799), what am I eased <01980> (8799)?
7 But now he hath made me weary <03811> (8689): thou hast made desolate <08074> (8689) all my company <05712>.
8 And thou hast filled me with wrinkles <07059> (8799), which is a witness <05707> against me: and my leanness <03585> rising up <06965> (8799) in me beareth witness <06030> (8799) to my face <06440>.
9 He teareth <02963> (8804) me in his wrath <0639>, who hateth <07852> (8799) me: he gnasheth <02786> (8804) upon me with his teeth <08127>; mine enemy <06862> sharpeneth <03913> (8799) his eyes <05869> upon me.
10 They have gaped <06473> (8804) upon me with their mouth <06310>; they have smitten <05221> (8689) me upon the cheek <03895> reproachfully <02781>; they have gathered <04390> (8691) themselves together <03162> against me.
11 God <0410> hath delivered <05462> (8686) me to the ungodly <05760>, and turned me over <03399> (8804) into the hands <03027> of the wicked <07563>.
12 I was at ease <07961>, but he hath broken me asunder <06565> (8770): he hath also taken <0270> (8804) me by my neck <06203>, and shaken me to pieces <06327> (8770), and set me up <06965> (8686) for his mark <04307>.
13 His archers <07228> compass me round about <05437> (8799), he cleaveth <06398> <00> my reins <03629> asunder <06398> (8762), and doth not spare <02550> (8799); he poureth out <08210> (8799) my gall <04845> upon the ground <0776>.
14 He breaketh <06555> (8799) me with breach <06556> upon <06440> breach <06556>, he runneth <07323> (8799) upon me like a giant <01368>.
15 I have sewed <08609> (8804) sackcloth <08242> upon my skin <01539>, and defiled <05953> (8782) my horn <07161> in the dust <06083>.
16 My face <06440> is foul <02560> (8777) with weeping <01065>, and on my eyelids <06079> is the shadow of death <06757>;
17 # Not for any injustice <02555> in mine hands <03709>: also my prayer <08605> is pure <02134>.
18 O earth <0776>, cover <03680> (8762) not thou my blood <01818>, and let my cry <02201> have no place <04725>.
19 Also now, behold, my witness <05707> is in heaven <08064>, and my record <07717> is on high <04791>.
20 My friends <07453> scorn <03887> (8688) me: but mine eye <05869> poureth out <01811> (8804) tears unto God <0433>.
21 O that one might plead <03198> (8686) for a man <01397> with God <0433>, as a man <0120> pleadeth for his neighbour <01121> <07453>!
22 When a few <04557> years <08141> are come <0857> (8799), then I shall go <01980> (8799) the way <0734> whence I shall not return <07725> (8799).
