Job 19:13-22

13“He has put my brothers far from me, And my acquaintances are completely estranged from me.

14My relatives have failed [me], And my intimate friends have forgotten me.

15Those who live [temporarily] in my house and my maids consider me a stranger; I am a foreigner in their sight.

16I call to my servant, but he does not answer; I have to implore him with words.

17My breath is repulsive to my wife, And I am loathsome to my own brothers.

18Even young children despise me; When I get up, they speak against me.

19All the men of my council hate me; Those I love have turned against me.

20My bone clings to my skin and to my flesh, And I have escaped [death] by the skin of my teeth.

21Have pity on me! Have pity on me, O you my friends, For the hand of God has touched me.

22Why do you persecute me as God does? Why are you not satisfied with my flesh (anguish)?
