Job 19:7-20

7Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard:I cry for help, but there is no justice.8He hath walled up my way that I cannot pass,And hath set darkness in my paths.9He hath stripped me of my glory,And taken the crown from my head.10He hath broken me down on every side, and I am gone;And my hope hath he plucked up like a tree.11He hath also kindled his wrath against me,And he counteth me unto him as one of his adversaries.12His troops come on together,And cast up their way against me,And encamp round about my tent.13He hath put my brethren far from me,And mine acquaintance are wholly estranged from me.14My kinsfolk have failed,And my familiar friends have forgotten me.15They that dwell in my house, and my maids, count me for a stranger:I am an alien in their sight.16I call unto my servant, and he giveth me no answer,ThoughI entreat him with my mouth.17My breath is strange to my wife,And my supplication to the children of mine own mother.18Even young children despise me;If I arise, they speak against me.19All my familiar friends abhor me,And they whom I loved are turned against me.20My bone cleaveth to my skin and to my flesh,And I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.
