Job 16:12-17

View Full Chapter

12All was well with me, but he shattered me; he seized me by the neck and crushed me. He has made me his target;

13his archers surround me. Without pity, he pierces my kidneys and spills my gall on the ground.

14Again and again he bursts upon me; he rushes at me like a warrior.

15“I have sewed sackcloth over my skin and buried my brow in the dust.

16My face is red with weeping, dark shadows ring my eyes;

17yet my hands have been free of violence and my prayer is pure.
