Chapter 16
Job KJV 16:2  I have heard many such things: miserable comforters are ye all.
Job KJV 16:3  Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldeneth thee that thou answerest?
Job KJV 16:4  I also could speak as ye do: if your soul were in my soul’s stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake mine head at you.
Job KJV 16:5  But I would strengthen you with my mouth, and the moving of my lips should asswage your grief.
Job KJV 16:6  Though I speak, my grief is not asswaged: and though I forbear, what am I eased?
Job KJV 16:7  But now he hath made me weary: thou hast made desolate all my company.
Job KJV 16:8  And thou hast filled me with wrinkles, which is a witness against me: and my leanness rising up in me beareth witness to my face.
Job KJV 16:9  He teareth me in his wrath, who hateth me: he gnasheth upon me with his teeth; mine enemy sharpeneth his eyes upon me.
Job KJV 16:10  They have gaped upon me with their mouth; they have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully; they have gathered themselves together against me.
Job KJV 16:11  God hath delivered me to the ungodly, and turned me over into the hands of the wicked.
Job KJV 16:12  I was at ease, but he hath broken me asunder: he hath also taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces, and set me up for his mark.
Job KJV 16:13  His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground.
Job KJV 16:14  He breaketh me with breach upon breach, he runneth upon me like a giant.
Job KJV 16:15  I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and defiled my horn in the dust.
Job KJV 16:16  My face is foul with weeping, and on my eyelids is the shadow of death;
Job KJV 16:17  Not for any injustice in mine hands: also my prayer is pure.
Job KJV 16:18  O earth, cover not thou my blood, and let my cry have no place.
Job KJV 16:19  Also now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and my record is on high.
Job KJV 16:20  My friends scorn me: but mine eye poureth out tears unto God.
Job KJV 16:21  O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!
Job KJV 16:22  When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return.
