Job 17:2-7
21SurelyH518H3808 mockersH2049 are with me, And my eyeH5869 2gazesH3885 on their provocationH4784.
3“LayH7760 downH7760, nowH4994, a pledgeH6162 3for me with Yourself; WhoH4310 is there that will 4be my guarantorH8628H3027?4For You have 56keptH6845 their heartH3820 from understandingH7922, ThereforeH5921H3651 You will not exaltH7311 them.5He who 7informsH5046 against friendsH7453 for a shareH2506 of the spoil, The 8eyesH5869 of his childrenH1121 also will languishH3615.
6“But He has madeH3322 me a 9bywordH4914 of the peopleH5971, And I amH1961 10one at whom men 11spitH8611.7My eyeH5869 has also grownH3543 12dimH3543 becauseH4480 of griefH3708, And allH3605 my 13membersH3338 are as a shadowH6738.
