New American Standard Bible 2020

Job Feels Insulted

1Then JobH347 respondedH6030H559,2“HowH575 longH5704 will you tormentH3013 1me And crushH1792 me with wordsH4405?3TheseH2088 tenH6235 timesH6471 you have insultedH3637 me; You areH954 not ashamedH954 to wrongH1970 me.4EvenH637 if I have trulyH551 doneH7686 wrongH7686, My errorH4879 staysH3885 with me.5IfH518 indeedH551 you 2exaltH1431 yourselves againstH5921 me And proveH3198 my disgraceH2781 to me,6KnowH3045 thenH645 that 3GodH433 has wrongedH5791 me And has surroundedH5362 me with 4His netH4685.

Everything Is Against Him

7“BeholdH2005, 5I cryH6817, ‘ViolenceH2555!’ but I getH6030 noH3808 answerH6030; I shoutH7768 forH7768 helpH7768, but thereH369 isH369 noH369 justiceH4941.8He has 6blockedH1443 my wayH734 so that I cannotH3808 passH5674, And He has putH7760 7darknessH2822 on my pathsH5410.9He has 8strippedH6584 my honorH3519 from me And removedH5493 the 9crownH5850 from my headH7218.10He 10breaksH5422 me downH5422 on everyH5439 sideH5439, and I am goneH1980; And He has uprootedH5265 my 11hopeH8615 12like a treeH6086.11He has also 13kindledH2734 His angerH639 againstH5921 me And 14consideredH2803 me as His enemyH6862.12His 15troopsH1416 comeH935 togetherH3162 And 16buildH5549 upH5549 their 17wayH1870 againstH5921 me And campH2583 aroundH5439 my tentH168.

13“He has 18removedH7368 my brothersH251 farH7368 from me, And my 19acquaintancesH3045 have completelyH389 turnedH2114 awayH2114 from me.14My relativesH7138 have failedH2308, And my 20closeH3045 friendsH3045 have forgottenH7911 me.15Those who liveH1481 in my houseH1004 and my servantH519 womenH519 considerH2803 me a strangerH2114. I amH1961 a foreignerH5237 in their sightH5869.16I callH7121 to my servantH5650, but he does not answerH6030; I have to imploreH2603 his favorH2603 with my mouthH6310.17My breathH7307 is offensiveH2114 to my wifeH802, And I am loathsomeH2603 to my own brothersH1121H990.18EvenH1571 youngH5759 childrenH5759 despiseH3988 me; I standH6965 upH6965 and they speakH1696 against me.19AllH3605 21my 22associatesH4962 loatheH8581 me, And thoseH2088 I loveH157 have turnedH2015 against me.20My 23boneH6106 clingsH1692 to my skinH5785 and my fleshH1320, And I have escapedH4422 only by the skinH5785 of my teethH8127.21PityH2603 me, pityH2603 me, you friendsH7453 of mine, For the 24handH3027 of GodH433 has struckH5221 me.22WhyH4100 do you 25persecuteH7291 me as GodH410 does, And areH7646 not satisfiedH7646 with my fleshH1320?

Job Says My Redeemer Lives

23“OhH4310H5414 thatH4310H5414 my wordsH4405 were writtenH3789! OhH4310H5414 thatH4310H5414 they were 26recordedH2710 in a bookH5612!24That with an ironH1270 stylusH5842 and leadH5777 They were engravedH2672 in the rockH6697 foreverH5703!25Yet as for me, I knowH3045 that 27my RedeemerH1350 livesH2416, And at the lastH314, He will takeH6965 His standH6965 on the 28earthH6083.26Even afterH310 my skinH5785 29is destroyedH5362, Yet from my fleshH1320 I will 30seeH2372 GodH433,27WhomH834 I, on my partH589, shall beholdH2372 for myself, And whom my eyesH5869 will seeH7200, and not anotherH2114. My 31heartH3629 32faintsH3615 33withinH2436 me!28IfH3588 you sayH559, ‘HowH4100 shall we 34persecuteH7291 him?’ And ‘35What pretextH8328 for a caseH1697 against him can we findH4672?’29Then be afraidH1481 of 36the swordH2719 for yourselves, For wrathH2534 brings the punishmentH5771 of the swordH2719, SoH4616 thatH4616 you may knowH3045 37there is judgmentH1779.”
