Chapter 16
Job UKJV 16:2  I have heard many such things: miserable comforters are all of you all.
Job UKJV 16:3  Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldens you that you answer?
Job UKJV 16:4  I also could speak as all of you do: if your soul were in my soul's position, I could heap up words against you, and shake mine head at you.
Job UKJV 16:5  But I would strengthen you with my mouth, and the moving of my lips should subside your grief.
Job UKJV 16:6  Though I speak, my grief is not subsided: and though I forbear, what am I eased?
Job UKJV 16:7  But now he has made me weary: you have made desolate all my company.
Job UKJV 16:8  And you have filled me with wrinkles, which is a witness against me: and my leanness rising up in me bears witness to my face.
Job UKJV 16:9  He tears me in his wrath, who hates me: he gnashes upon me with his teeth; mine enemy sharpens his eyes upon me.
Job UKJV 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 UKJV 16:11  God has delivered me to the ungodly, and turned me over into the hands of the wicked.
Job UKJV 16:12  I was at ease, but he has broken me asunder: he has also taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces, and set me up for his mark.
Job UKJV 16:13  His archers compass me round about, he cleaves my reins asunder, and does not spare; he pours out my gall upon the ground.
Job UKJV 16:14  He breaks me with breach upon breach, he runs upon me like a giant.
Job UKJV 16:15  I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and defiled my horn in the dust.
Job UKJV 16:16  My face is foul with weeping, and on my eyelids is the shadow of death;
Job UKJV 16:17  Not for any injustice in mine hands: also my prayer is pure.
Job UKJV 16:18  O earth, cover not you my blood, and let my cry have no place.
Job UKJV 16:19  Also now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and my record is on high.
Job UKJV 16:20  My friends scorn me: but mine eye pours out tears unto God.
Job UKJV 16:21  O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleads for his neighbour!
Job UKJV 16:22  When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return.
