Job 30:14-24

14 They come at me as if through a hole in the wall, and they roll in among the ruins.
15 Great fears overwhelm me. They blow my honor away as if by a great wind, and my safety disappears like a cloud.
16 "Now my life is almost over; my days are full of suffering.
17 At night my bones ache; gnawing pains never stop.
18 In his great power God grabs hold of my clothing and chokes me with the collar of my coat.
19 He throws me into the mud, and I become like dirt and ashes.
20 "I cry out to you, God, but you do not answer; I stand up, but you just look at me.
21 You have turned on me without mercy; with your powerful hand you attacked me.
22 You snatched me up and threw me into the wind and tossed me about in the storm.
23 I know you will bring me down to death, to the place where all living people must go.
24 "Surely no one would hurt a ruined man when he cries for help in his time of trouble.
