Job 19:7-20

7I cry out, “Violence!” but get no response; I call for help, but there is no justice.

8He has blocked my way so that I cannot pass through; he has veiled my paths with darkness.

9He has stripped me of my honor and removed the crown from my head.

10He tears me down on every side so that I am ruined. He uproots my hope like a tree.

11His anger burns against me, and he regards me as one of his enemies.

12His troops advance together; they construct a ramp against me and camp around my tent.

13He has removed my brothers from me; my acquaintances have abandoned me.

14My relatives stop coming by, and my close friends have forgotten me.

15My house guests and female servants regard me as a stranger; I am a foreigner in their sight.

16I call for my servant, but he does not answer, even if I beg him with my own mouth.

17My breath is offensive to my wife, and my own family finds me repulsive.

18Even young boys scorn me. When I stand up, they mock me.

19All of my best friends despise me, and those I love have turned against me.

20My skin and my flesh cling to my bones; I have escaped with only the skin of my teeth.
