Job 30:18
Compare all
16 “Anda now my soul is bpoured out because of my plight;
The days of affliction take hold of me. 
17 My bones are pierced in me at night,
And my gnawing pains take no rest.
18 By great force my garment is disfigured;
It binds me about as the collar of my coat.
19 He has cast me into the mire,
And I have become like dust and ashes.
20 “I acry out to You, but You do not answer me;
I stand up, and You regard me. 
21 But You have become cruel to me;
With the strength of Your hand You aoppose me. 
22 You lift me up to the wind and cause me to ride on it;
You spoil my success.
23 For I know that You will bring me to death,
And to the house aappointed for all living. 
24 “Surely He would not stretch out His hand against a heap of ruins,
If they cry out when He destroys it.
25 aHave I not wept for him who was in trouble?
Has not my soul grieved for the poor? 
26 aBut when I looked for good, evil came to me;
And when I waited for light, then came darkness. 
27 1My heart is in turmoil and cannot rest;
Days of affliction confront me.
