[1] Then Job answered,
[2] “How long will you torment me,
and crush me with words?
[3] You have reproached me ten times.
You aren’t ashamed that you attack me.
[4] If it is true that I have erred,
my error remains with myself.
[5] If indeed you will magnify yourselves against me,
and plead against me my reproach,
[6] know now that God has subverted me,
and has surrounded me with his net. [7] “Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard.
I cry for help, but there is no justice.
[8] He has walled up my way so that I can’t pass,
and has set darkness in my paths.
[9] He has stripped me of my glory,
and taken the crown from my head.
[10] He has broken me down on every side, and I am gone.
He has plucked my hope up like a tree.
[11] He has also kindled his wrath against me.
He counts me among his adversaries.
[12] His troops come on together,
build a siege ramp against me,
and encamp around my tent. [13] “He has put my brothers far from me.
My acquaintances are wholly estranged from me.
[14] My relatives have gone away.
My familiar friends have forgotten me.
[15] Those who dwell in my house and my maids consider me a stranger.
I am an alien in their sight.
[16] I call to my servant, and he gives me no answer.
I beg him with my mouth.
[17] My breath is offensive to my wife.
I am loathsome to the children of my own mother.
[18] Even young children despise me.
If I arise, they speak against me.
[19] All my familiar friends abhor me.
They whom I loved have turned against me.
[20] My bones stick to my skin and to my flesh.
I have escaped by the skin of my teeth. [21] “Have pity on me. Have pity on me, you my friends,
for the hand of God has touched me.
[22] Why do you persecute me as God,
and are not satisfied with my flesh? [23] “Oh that my words were now written!
Oh that they were inscribed in a book!
[24] That with an iron pen and lead
they were engraved in the rock forever!
[25] But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives.
In the end, he will stand upon the earth.
[26] After my skin is destroyed,
then I will see God in my flesh,
[27] whom I, even I, will see on my side.
My eyes will see, and not as a stranger.“My heart is consumed within me.
[28] If you say, ‘How we will persecute him!’
because the root of the matter is found in me,
[29] be afraid of the sword,
for wrath brings the punishments of the sword,
that you may know there is a judgment.”
King James Version

Job’s Reply

[1] Then Job H347 answered H6030 and said, H559
[2] How long will ye vex H3013 my soul, H5315
And break H1792 me in pieces with words? H4405
[3] These H2088 ten H6235 times H6471 have ye reproached H3637 me:
Ye are not ashamed H954 that ye make yourselves strange H1970 to me.§
[4] And be it indeed H551 that I have erred, H7686
Mine error H4879 remaineth H3885 with myself.
[5] If indeed H551 ye will magnify H1431 yourselves against me,
And plead H3198 against H5921 me my reproach: H2781
[6] Know H3045 now H645 that God H433 hath overthrown H5791 me,
And hath compassed H5362 me with his net. H4686
[7] Behold, I cry out H6817 of wrong, H2555§ but I am not heard: H6030
I cry aloud, H7768 but there is no judgment. H4941
[8] He hath fenced up H1443 my way H734 that I cannot pass, H5674
And he hath set H7760 darkness H2822 in my paths. H5410
[9] He hath stripped H6584 me of my glory, H3519
And taken H5493 the crown H5850 from my head. H7218
[10] He hath destroyed H5422 me on every side, H5439 and I am gone: H3212
And mine hope H8615 hath he removed H5265 like a tree. H6086
[11] He hath also kindled H2734 his wrath H639 against H5921 me,
And he counteth H2803 me unto him as one of his enemies. H6862
[12] His troops H1416 come H935 together, H3162
And raise up H5549 their way H1870 against H5921 me,
And encamp H2583 round about H5439 my tabernacle. H168
[13] He hath put H7368 my brethren H251 far H7368 from H4480 me,
And mine acquaintance H3045 are verily estranged H2114 from me.
[14] My kinsfolk H7138 have failed, H2308 and my familiar friends H3045 have forgotten H7911 me.
[15] They that dwell H1481 in mine house, H1004
And my maids, H519 count H2803 me for a stranger: H2114
I am an alien H5237 in their sight. H5869
[16] I called H7121 my servant, H5650 and he gave me no answer; H6030
I intreated H2603 him with H1119 my mouth. H6310
[17] My breath H7307 is strange H2114 to my wife, H802
Though I intreated H2589 for the children’s H1121 sake of mine own body. H990§
[18] Yea, young children H5759§ despised H3988 me;
I arose, H6965 and they spake H1696 against me.
[19] All H3605 my inward H5475 friends H4962§ abhorred H8581 me:
And they whom I loved H157 are turned H2015 against me.
[20] My bone H6106 cleaveth H1692 to my skin H5785 and to§ my flesh, H1320
And I am escaped H4422 with the skin H5785 of my teeth. H8127
[21] Have pity H2603 upon me, have pity H2603 upon me, O ye my friends; H7453
For H3588 the hand H3027 of God H433 hath touched H5060 me.
[22] Why do ye persecute H7291 me as God, H410
And are not satisfied H7646 with my flesh? H1320
[23] Oh that H5414 my words H4405 were now H645 written! H3789§
Oh that H5414 they were printed H2710 in a book! H5612
[24] That they were graven H2672 with an iron H1270 pen H5842 and lead H5777
In the rock H6697 for ever! H5703
[25] For I know H3045 that my redeemer H1350 liveth, H2416
And that he shall stand H6965 at the latter H314 day upon the earth: H6083
[26] And though after H310 my skin H5785 worms destroy H5362 this body,
Yet in my flesh H1320 shall I see H2372 God: H433§
[27] Whom H834 I shall see H2372 for myself,
And mine eyes H5869 shall behold, H7200 and not another; H2114§
Though my reins H3629 be consumed H3615 within H2436 me.§
[28] But ye should say, H559 Why persecute H7291 we him,
Seeing the root H8328 of the matter H1697 is found H4672 in me?§
[29] Be ye afraid H1481 of the sword: H2719
For H3588 wrath H2534 bringeth the punishments H5771 of H6440 the sword, H2719
That ye may know H3045 there is a judgment. H1779 H1779

[1] Ὑπολαβὼν G5274 δὲ G1161 Ιωβ G2492 λέγει G3004 [2] Ἕως G2193 τίνος G5101 ἔγκοπον ποιήσετε G4160 ψυχήν G5590 μου G3450 καὶ G2532 καθαιρεῖτε G2507 με G3165 λόγοις; G3056 [3] Γνῶτε G1097 μόνον G3440 ὅτι G3754 ὁ G3588 κύριος G2962 ἐποίησέ G4160 με G3165 οὕτως· G3779 καταλαλεῖτέ G2635 μου, G3450 οὐκ G3756 αἰσχυνόμενοί G153 με G3165 ἐπίκεισθέ G1945 μοι. G3427 [4] ‡Ναὶ G3483 δὴ G1211 ἐπ’ G1909 ἀληθείας G225 ἐγὼ G1473 ἐπλανήθην, G4105 παρ’ G3844 ἐμοὶ G1699 δὲ G1161 αὐλίζεται G835 πλάνος G4108 λαλῆσαι G2980 ῥῆμα, G4487 ὃ G3739 οὐκ G3756 ἔδει, G1163 τὰ G3588 δὲ G1161 ῥήματά G4487 μου G3450 πλανᾶται G4105 καὶ G2532 οὐκ G3756 ἐπὶ G1909 καιροῦ. G2540 [5] Ἔα G1436 δὲ G1161 ὅτι G3754 ἐπ’ G1909 ἐμοὶ G1699 μεγαλύνεσθε, G3170 ἐνάλλεσθε δέ G1161 μοι G3427 ὀνείδει. G3681 [6] Γνῶτε G1097 οὖν G3767 ὅτι G3754 ὁ G3588 κύριός G2962 ἐστιν G2076 ὁ G3588 ταράξας, G5015 ὀχύρωμα G3794 δὲ G1161 αὐτοῦ G846 ἐπ’ G1909 ἐμὲ G1691 ὕψωσεν. G5312 [7] Ἰδοὺ G2400 γελῶ G1070 ὀνείδει G3681 καὶ G2532 οὐ G3756 λαλήσω· G2980 κεκράξομαι, G2896 καὶ G2532 οὐδαμοῦ κρίμα. G2917 [8] Κύκλῳ G2945 περιῳκοδόμημαι καὶ G2532 οὐ G3756 μὴ G3361 διαβῶ, G1224 ἐπὶ G1909 πρόσωπόν G4383 μου G3450 σκότος G4655 ἔθετο. G5087 [9] Τὴν G3588 δὲ G1161 δόξαν G1391 ἀπ’ G575 ἐμοῦ G1699 ἐξέδυσεν, G1562 ἀφεῖλεν G851 δὲ G1161 στέφανον G4735 ἀπὸ G575 κεφαλῆς G2776 μου. G3450 [10] Διέσπασέν G1288 με G3165 κύκλῳ, G2945 καὶ G2532 ᾠχόμην· ἐξέκοψεν G1581 δὲ G1161 ὥσπερ G5618 δένδρον G1186 τὴν G3588 ἐλπίδα G1680 μου. G3450 [11] Δεινῶς G1171 δέ G1161 μοι G3427 ὀργῇ G3709 ἐχρήσατο, G5530 ἡγήσατο G2233 δέ G1161 με G3165 ὥσπερ G5618 ἐχθρόν. G2190 [12] Ὁμοθυμαδὸν G3661 δὲ G1161 ἦλθον G2064 τὰ G3588 πειρατήρια αὐτοῦ G846 ἐπ’ G1909 ἐμοὶ G1699 ταῖς G3588 ὁδοῖς G3598 μου, G3450 ἐκύκλωσάν G2944 με G3165 ἐγκάθετοι.

G846 [16] Θεράποντά G2324 μου G3450 ἐκάλεσα, G2564 καὶ G2532 οὐχ G3756 ὑπήκουσεν· G5219 στόμα G4750 δέ G1161 μου G3450 ἐδέετο. G1189 [17] Καὶ G2532 ἱκέτευον τὴν G3588 γυναῖκά G1135 μου, G3450 προσεκαλούμην G4341 δὲ G1161 κολακεύων υἱοὺς G5207 παλλακίδων μου· G3450 [18] οἱ G3588 δὲ G1161 εἰς G1519 τὸν G3588 αἰῶνά G165 με G3165 ἀπεποιήσαντο· ὅταν G3752 ἀναστῶ, G450 κατ’ G2596 ἐμοῦ G1699 λαλοῦσιν.
