Job 19:6-16

6 Be certain that it is God who has done me wrong, and has taken me in his net.

6 then know that God has wronged me and drawn his net around me.

7 Truly, I make an outcry against the violent man, but there is no answer: I give a cry for help, but no one takes up my cause.

7 “Though I cry, ‘Violence!’ I get no response; though I call for help, there is no justice.

8 My way is walled up by him so that I may not go by: he has made my roads dark.

8 He has blocked my way so I cannot pass; he has shrouded my paths in darkness.

9 He has put off my glory from me, and taken the crown from my head.

9 He has stripped me of my honor and removed the crown from my head.

10 I am broken down by him on every side, and I am gone; my hope is uprooted like a tree.

10 He tears me down on every side till I am gone; he uproots my hope like a tree.

11 His wrath is burning against me, and I am to him as one of his haters.

11 His anger burns against me; he counts me among his enemies.

12 His armies come on together, they make their road high against me, and put up their tents round mine.

12 His troops advance in force; they build a siege ramp against me and encamp around my tent.

13 He has taken my brothers far away from me; they have seen my fate and have become strange to me.

13 “He has alienated my family from me; my acquaintances are completely estranged from me.

14 My relations and my near friends have given me up, and those living in my house have put me out of their minds.

14 My relatives have gone away; my closest friends have forgotten me.

15 I am strange to my women-servants, and seem to them as one from another country.

15 My guests and my female servants count me a foreigner; they look on me as on a stranger.

16 At my cry my servant gives me no answer, and I have to make a prayer to him.

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