Job 16:10-18 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

10. They have gaped upon me with their mouth; they have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully: they gather themselves together against me.

11. God delivereth me to the ungodly, and casteth me into the hands of the wicked.

12. I was at ease, and he brake me asunder; yea, he hath taken me by the neck, and dashed me to pieces: he hath also set me up for his mark.

13. His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground.

14. He breaketh me with breach upon breach; he runneth upon me like a giant.

15. I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and have laid my horn in the dust.

16. My face is foul with weeping, and on my eyelids is the shadow of death;

17. Although there is no violence in mine hands, and my prayer is pure.

18. O earth, cover not thou my blood, and let my cry have no resting place.
