Job 19:16-21

View Full Chapter

16I summon my servant, but he does not answer, though I beg him with my own mouth.

17My breath is offensive to my wife; I am loathsome to my own family.

18Even the little boys scorn me; when I appear, they ridicule me.

19All my intimate friends detest me; those I love have turned against me.

20I am nothing but skin and bones; I have escaped only by the skin of my teeth. Or only by my gums

21“Have pity on me, my friends, have pity, for the hand of God has struck me.
