욥기 16장 NASB

1. ¹ Then Job answered
2. ² "I have heard many such things; Sorry comforters are you all.
3. ³ "Is there no limit to windy words? Or what plagues you that you answer?
4. ⁴ "I too could speak like you If I were in your place. I could compose words against you And shake my head at you.
5. ⁵ "I could strengthen you with my mouth And the solace of my lips could lessen your pain.
6. ⁶ "If I speak my pain is not lessened And if I hold back what has left me?
7. ⁷ "But now He has exhausted me; You have laid waste all my company.
8. ⁸ "You have shriveled me up It has become a witness; And my leanness rises up against me It testifies to my face.
9. ⁹ "His anger has torn me and hunted me down He has gnashed at me with His teeth; My adversary glares at me.
10. ¹⁰ "They have gaped at me with their mouth They have slapped me on the cheek with contempt; They have massed themselves against me.
11. ¹¹ "God hands me over to ruffians And tosses me into the hands of the wicked.
12. ¹² "I was at ease but He shattered me And He has grasped me by the neck and shaken me to pieces; He has also set me up as His target.
13. ¹³ "His arrows surround me. Without mercy He splits my kidneys open; He pours out my gall on the ground.
14. ¹⁴ "He breaks through me with breach after breach; He runs at me like a warrior.
15. ¹⁵ "I have sewed sackcloth over my skin And thrust my horn in the dust.
16. ¹⁶ "My face is flushed from weeping And deep darkness is on my eyelids
17. ¹⁷ Although there is no violence in my hands And my prayer is pure.
18. ¹⁸ "O earth do not cover my blood And let there be no resting place for my cry.
19. ¹⁹ "Even now behold my witness is in heaven And my advocate is on high.
20. ²⁰ "My friends are my scoffers; My eye weeps to God.
21. ²¹ "O that a man might plead with God As a man with his neighbor!
22. ²² "For when a few years are past I shall go the way of no return.
