Job 16:6-17
6Even if I speak, my pain is not relieved, and if I hold back, how will it go away?7Surely He has now exhausted me; You have devastated all my family.8You have bound me, and it has become a witness; my frailty rises up and testifies against me.9His anger has torn me and opposed me; He gnashes His teeth at me. My adversary pierces me with His eyes.
10They open their mouths against meand strike my cheeks with contempt;they join together against me.11God has delivered me to unjust men;He has thrown me to the clutches of the wicked.12I was at ease, but He shattered me;He seized me by the neck and crushed me.He has set me up as His target;13His archers surround me.He pierces my kidneys without mercyand spills my gall on the ground.14He breaks me with wound upon wound;He rushes me like a mighty warrior.
15I have sewn sackcloth over my skin;I have buried my horn in the dust.16My face is red with weeping,and deep shadows ring my eyes;17yet my hands are free of violenceand my prayer is pure.
