Job 17

My breath is corrupt, my days are extinct, the graves are ready for me. 🔗
Are there not mockers with me? and doth not mine eye continue in their provocation? 🔗
Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who is he that will strike hands with me? 🔗
For thou hast hid their heart from understanding: therefore shalt thou not exalt them. 🔗
He that speaketh flattery to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail. 🔗
He hath made me also a byword of the people; and aforetime I was as a tabret. 🔗
Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow. 🔗
Upright men shall be astonied at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite. 🔗
The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger. 🔗
But as for you all, do ye return, and come now: for I cannot find one wise man among you. 🔗
My days are past, my purposes are broken off, even the thoughts of my heart. 🔗
They change the night into day: the light is short because of darkness. 🔗
If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness. 🔗
I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister. 🔗
And where is now my hope? as for my hope, who shall see it? 🔗
They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when our rest together is in the dust. 🔗
