Job 19

1 Then Job answered and said,WBS — Job 19:1

2 How long will ye vex my soul, and break me in pieces with words?WBS — Job 19:2

3 These ten times have ye reproached me: ye are not ashamed that ye make yourselves strange to me.WBS — Job 19:3

4 And be it indeed that I have erred, my error remaineth with myself.WBS — Job 19:4

5 If indeed ye will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach:WBS — Job 19:5

6 Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath encompassed me with his net.WBS — Job 19:6

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

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

9 He hath stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head.WBS — Job 19:9

10 He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and my hope hath he removed like a tree.WBS — Job 19:10

11 He hath also kindled his wrath against me, and he counteth me to him as one of his enemies.WBS — Job 19:11

12 His troops come together, and raise up their way against me, and encamp around my tabernacle.WBS — Job 19:12

13 He hath put my brethren far from me, and my acquaintance are verily estranged from me.WBS — Job 19:13

14 My kinsmen have failed, and my familiar friends have forgotten me.WBS — Job 19:14

15 They that dwell in my house, and my maids, count me for a stranger: I am an alien in their sight.WBS — Job 19:15

16 I called my servant, and he gave me no answer; I entreated him with my mouth.WBS — Job 19:16

17 My breath is strange to my wife, though I entreated for the children’s sake of my own body.WBS — Job 19:17

18 Yes, young children despised me; I arose, and they spoke against me.WBS — Job 19:18

19 All my intimate friends abhorred me: and they whom I loved are turned against me.WBS — Job 19:19

20 My bone cleaveth to my skin and to my flesh, and I have escaped with the skin of my teeth.WBS — Job 19:20

21 Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me.WBS — Job 19:21

22 Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?WBS — Job 19:22

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

24 That they were graven with an iron pen in lead, in the rock for ever!WBS — Job 19:24

25 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he will stand at the latter day upon the earth:WBS — Job 19:25

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

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

28 But ye would say, Why persecute we him, seeing the root of the matter is found in me?WBS — Job 19:28

29 Be ye afraid of the sword: for wrath bringeth the punishments of the sword, that ye may know there is a judgment.WBS — Job 19:29
