Job 16:17
Compare all
15 “I have sewn sackcloth over my skin,
And alaid my head in the dust. 
16 My face is1 flushed from weeping,
And on my eyelids is the shadow of death; 
17 Although no violence is in my hands,
And my prayer is pure.
18 “O earth, do not cover my blood,
And alet my cry have no resting place! 
19 Surely even now amy witness is in heaven,
And my evidence is on high. 
20 My friends scorn me;
My eyes pour out tears to God.
21 aOh, that one might plead for a man with God,
As a man pleads for his1 neighbor!
