Job 19:22-29

22 Why are you cruel to me, like God, for ever saying evil against me?

22 Why do you pursue me as God does? Will you never get enough of my flesh?

23 If only my words might be recorded! if they might be put in writing in a book!

23 “Oh, that my words were recorded, that they were written on a scroll,

24 And with an iron pen and lead be cut into the rock for ever!

24 that they were inscribed with an iron tool on lead, or engraved in rock forever!

25 But I am certain that he who will take up my cause is living, and that in time to come he will take his place on the dust;

25 I know that my redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand on the earth.

26 And ... without my flesh I will see God;

26 And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God;

27 Whom I will see on my side, and not as one strange to me. My heart is broken with desire.

27 I myself will see him with my own eyes—I, and not another. How my heart yearns within me!

28 If you say, How cruel we will be to him! because the root of sin is clearly in him:

28 “If you say, ‘How we will hound him, since the root of the trouble lies in him, ’

29 Be in fear of the sword, for the sword is the punishment for such things, so that you may be certain that there is a judge.

29 you should fear the sword yourselves; for wrath will bring punishment by the sword, and then you will know that there is judgment. ”
