How long will ye vex my soul, and break me in
pieces with words? |
|

Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath
compassed me with his net. |

gone: and mine hope hath he removed like a tree. |

he counteth me unto him as one of his enemies. |
|

way against me, and encamp round about my tabernacle. |
|

acquaintance are verily estranged from me. |
|
|
|
Job 19:14 |
|
My kinsfolk have failed, and my familiar friends
have forgotten me. |
|
|
|

|
They that dwell in mine house, and my maids,
count me for a stranger: I am an alien in their sight. |
|
|
|
Job 19:16 |
|
I called my servant, and he gave me no answer;
I intreated him with my mouth. |
|
|
|

for the children's sake of mine own body. |
|
|

whom I loved are turned against me. |

friends; for the hand of God hath touched me. |

Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied
with my flesh? |
|
|
|
Job 19:23 |
|
Oh that my words were now written! oh that they
were printed in a book! |
|
|
|
Job 19:24 |
|
That they were graven with an iron pen and lead
in the rock for ever! |
|
|
|
Job 19:25 |
|
For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that
he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: |
|
|
|
Job 19:26 |
|
And though after my skin worms destroy this
body, yet in my flesh shall I see God: |
|
|
|
Job 19:27 |
|
Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall
behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me. |
|
|
|
Job 19:28 |
|
But ye should say, Why persecute we him, seeing
the root of the matter is found in me? |
|
|
|
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. |
