Job 16:6-14

6“Yet, if I speak, my pain is not relieved, and if I refrain, does it not go away from me?

7Surely now He has exhausted me; You have devastated my entire household.

8You have seized me— it has become a witness; my leanness rises against me and testifies to my face.

9His anger has torn and tormented me; He gnashes at me with his teeth; my enemy looks at me with daggers in his eyes.

10People open their mouths against me; they strike my cheek in contempt; they unite together against me.

11God has handed me over to the ungodly, and tossed me into the hands of the wicked.

12I was at ease, but He shattered me; He grabbed me by the neck and crushed me. He has made me His target;

13His archers surround me. Without mercy He pierces my kidneys and spills my gall on the ground.

14He breaks through against me, breach after breach. He runs after me like a warrior.
