UKJV - Job - 19

19:1  Then Job answered and said,

19:2  How long will all of you vex my soul, and break me in pieces with words?

19:3  These ten times have all of you reproached me: all of you are not ashamed that all of you make yourselves strange to me.

19:4  And be it indeed that I have erred, mine error remains with myself.

19:5  If indeed all of you will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach:

19:6  Know now that God has overthrown me, and has compassed me with his net.

19:7  Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry aloud, but there is no judgment.

19:8  He has fenced up my way that I cannot pass, and he has set darkness in my paths.

19:9  He has stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head.

19:10  He has destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope has he removed like a tree.

19:11  He has also kindled his wrath against me, and he counts me unto him as one of his enemies.

19:12  His troops come together, and raise up their way against me, and camp round about my tabernacle.

19:13  He has put my brethren far from me, and mine acquaintance are verily cut off from me.

19:14  My kinsfolk have failed, and my familiar friends have forgotten me.

19:15  They that dwell in mine house, and my maids, count me for a stranger: I am an foreigner in their sight.

19:16  I called my servant, and he gave me no answer; I implored him with my mouth.

19:17  My breath is strange to my wife, though I implored for the children's sake of mine own body.

19:18  Yea, young children despised me; I arose, and they spoke against me.

19:19  All my inward friends abhorred me: and they whom I loved are turned against me.

19:20  My bone cleaves to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.

19:21  Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O all of you my friends; for the hand of God has touched me.

19:22  Why do all of you persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?

19:23  Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were printed in a book!

19:24  That they were graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock for ever!

19:25  For I know that my redeemer lives, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:

19:26  And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:

19:27  Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.

19:28  But all of you should say, Why persecute we him, seeing the root of the matter is found in me?

19:29  Be all of you afraid of the sword: for wrath brings the punishments of the sword, that all of you may know there is a judgment.
