Job 19:7-20

7ThoughH2005 I cry outH6817, ‘ViolenceH2555!’ I get noH3808 responseH6030; though I call for helpH7768, there is noH369 justiceH4941.8He has blockedH1443 my wayH734 so I cannotH3808 passH5674; He has veiledH5921H7760 my pathsH5410 with darknessH2822.9He has stripped meH6584 of my honorH3519H5921 and removedH5493 the crownH5850 from my headH7218.10He tears me downH5422 on every sideH5439 until I am goneH1980; He uprootsH5265 my hopeH8615 like a treeH6086.11His angerH639 burnsH2734 against meH5921, and He counts meH2803 among His enemiesH6862.12His troopsH1416 advanceH935 togetherH3162; they constructH5549 a rampH1870 against meH5921 and encampH2583 aroundH5439 my tentH168.

13He has removedH7368 my brothersH251 from meH5921;my acquaintancesH3045H389 have abandonedH2114 meH4480.14My kinsmenH7138 have failed meH2308,and my friendsH3045 have forgotten meH7911.15My guestsH1004 and maidservantsH519 count meH2803 as a strangerH2114;I amH1961 a foreignerH5237 in their sightH5869.16I callH7121 for my servantH5650, but he does notH3808 answerH6030,though I imploreH2603 him withH1119 my own mouthH6310.17My breathH7307 is repulsiveH2114 to my wifeH802,and I am loathsomeH2603 to my own familyH1121H990.18EvenH1571 little boysH5759 scornH3988 me;when I appearH6965, they derideH1696 me.19AllH3605 my best friendsH4962H5475 despise meH8581,and thoseH2088 I loveH157 have turnedH2015 against me.20My skinH5785 and fleshH1320 clingH1692 to my bonesH6106;I have escapedH4422 by the skinH5785 of my teethH8127.
