Job 16:10

Job 16:10

8 You have shriveled me up,
And it is a ^awitness against me;
My leanness rises up against me
And bears witness to my face.

9 ^aHe tears me in His wrath, and hates me;
He gnashes at me with His teeth;
^bMy adversary sharpens His gaze on me.

10 They ^agape at me with their mouth,
They ^bstrike me reproachfully on the cheek,
They gather together against me.

11 God ^ahas delivered me to the ungodly,
And turned me over to the hands of the wicked.

12 I was at ease, but He has ^ashattered me;
He also has taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces;
He has ^bset me up for His target,

John Wesley's Notes

<< Job 16:9

Job 16:11 >>

They - My friends. Gaped - Opened their mouths wide against me. In all this Job was a type of Christ. These very expressions are used in the predictions of his sufferings, Psalms 22:13. They gaped upon me with their mouths, and Micah 5:1. They shall smite the judge of Israel upon the check.
