Job 30
- But now they that are younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I would have disdained to have set with the dogs of my flock. 🔗
- Yea, whereto might the strength of their hands profit me, in whom old age was perished? 🔗
- For want and famine they were solitary; fleeing into the wilderness in former time desolate and waste. 🔗
- Who cut up mallows by the bushes, and juniper roots for their meat. 🔗
- They were driven forth from among men, (they cried after them as after a thief;) 🔗
- To dwell in the cliffs of the valleys, in caves of the earth, and in the rocks. 🔗
- Among the bushes they brayed; under the nettles they were gathered together. 🔗
- They were children of fools, yea, children of base men: they were viler than the earth. 🔗
- And now am I their song, yea, I am their byword. 🔗
- They abhor me, they flee far from me, and spare not to spit in my face. 🔗
- Because he hath loosed my cord, and afflicted me, they have also let loose the bridle before me. 🔗
- Upon my right hand rise the youth; they push away my feet, and they raise up against me the ways of their destruction. 🔗
- They mar my path, they set forward my calamity, they have no helper. 🔗
- They came upon me as a wide breaking in of waters: in the desolation they rolled themselves upon me. 🔗
- Terrors are turned upon me: they pursue my soul as the wind: and my welfare passeth away as a cloud. 🔗
- And now my soul is poured out upon me; the days of affliction have taken hold upon me. 🔗
- My bones are pierced in me in the night season: and my sinews take no rest. 🔗
- By the great force of my disease is my garment changed: it bindeth me about as the collar of my coat. 🔗
- He hath cast me into the mire, and I am become like dust and ashes. 🔗
- I cry unto thee, and thou dost not hear me: I stand up, and thou regardest me not. 🔗
- Thou art become cruel to me: with thy strong hand thou opposest thyself against me. 🔗
- Thou liftest me up to the wind; thou causest me to ride upon it, and dissolvest my substance. 🔗
- For I know that thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living. 🔗
- Howbeit he will not stretch out his hand to the grave, though they cry in his destruction. 🔗
- Did not I weep for him that was in trouble? was not my soul grieved for the poor? 🔗
- When I looked for good, then evil came unto me: and when I waited for light, there came darkness. 🔗
- My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me. 🔗
- I went mourning without the sun: I stood up, and I cried in the congregation. 🔗
- I am a brother to dragons, and a companion to owls. 🔗
- My skin is black upon me, and my bones are burned with heat. 🔗
- My harp also is turned to mourning, and my organ into the voice of them that weep. 🔗
