Job 16:16-21

16My face is flushed from weeping, And on my eyelids is the shadow of death;

17Although no violence is in my hands, And my prayer is pure.

18“O earth, do not cover my blood, And let my cry have no resting place!

19Surely even now my witness is in heaven, And my evidence is on high.

20My friends scorn me; My eyes pour out tears to God.

21Oh, that one might plead for a man with God, As a man pleads for his neighbor!
