Job 30:10-23
-
10 They abhor me, they flee far from me, and spare not to spit in my face.
-
11 Because he hath loosed my cord, and afflicted me, they have also let loose the bridle before me.
-
12 Upon my right hand rise the youth; they push away my feet, and they raise up against me the ways of their destruction.
-
13 They mar my path, they set forward my calamity, they have no helper.
-
14 They came upon me as a wide breaking in of waters: in the desolation they rolled themselves upon me.
-
15 Terrors are turned upon me: they pursue my soul as the wind: and my welfare passeth away as a cloud.
-
16 And now my soul is poured out upon me; the days of affliction have taken hold upon me.
-
17 My bones are pierced in me in the night season: and my sinews take no rest.
-
18 By the great force of my disease is my garment changed: it bindeth me about as the collar of my coat.
-
19 He hath cast me into the mire, and I am become like dust and ashes.
-
20 I cry unto thee, and thou dost not hear me: I stand up, and thou regardest me not.
-
21 Thou art become cruel to me: with thy strong hand thou opposest thyself against me.
-
22 Thou liftest me up to the wind; thou causest me to ride upon it, and dissolvest my substance.
-
23 For I know that thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living.
