Job 19:13-21

13He hath putH7368 my brethrenH251 farH7368 from me, and mine acquaintanceH3045 are verily estrangedH2114 from me.

14My kinsfolkH7138 have failedH2308, and my familiar friendsH3045 have forgottenH7911 me.

15They that dwellH1481 in mine houseH1004, and my maidsH519, countH2803 me for a strangerH2114: I am an alienH5237 in their sightH5869.

16I calledH7121 my servantH5650, and he gave me no answerH6030; I intreatedH2603 him withH1119 my mouthH6310.

17My breathH7307 is strangeH2114 to my wifeH802, though I intreatedH2589 for the children’sH1121 sake of mine own bodyH990.1

18Yea, young childrenH5759 despisedH3988 me; I aroseH6965, and they spakeH1696 against me.2

19All my inwardH5475 friendsH4962 abhorredH8581 me: and they whom I lovedH157 are turnedH2015 against me.3

20My boneH6106 cleavethH1692 to my skinH5785 and to my fleshH1320, and I am escapedH4422 with the skinH5785 of my teethH8127.4

21Have pityH2603 upon me, have pityH2603 upon me, O ye my friendsH7453; for the handH3027 of GodH433 hath touchedH5060 me.
