Job 19:13-25 (Neal's translation, with deference to C.L. Seow's
13 He has distanced my family from me, and those who know me best are now strangers. 14 My relatives and closest friends are no more; the guests in my house have forgotten me. 15 Even the house-maids don't know me; I am an outsider in their eyes. 16 I call to my servant, but he doesn't answer; with my lips I beg for him to come. 17 My spirit is strange to my wife, and I yearn for the children of my body. 18 Even the foolish despise me; when I rise they ridicule me. 19 My innermost circle of friends reject me, and those whom I love turn their backs. 20 My flesh hangs by skin and bones, and I am left with the skin of my teeth. 21 Take pity, take pity on me, you who are my friends, for the hand of God has struck me! 22 Why do you hound me, like God, unsatisfied with my flesh? 23 23 “O that my words were written down! O that they were inscribed in a book! 24 O that with an iron pen and with lead they were engraved on a rock forever! 25 For I know that my Redeemer lives, and that at the last he will stand upon the earth.
23 Would, then, that my words be written! Would that they be inscribed in a record, 24 With an iron stylus and with lead, etched forever on a rock. 25 But I know my redeemer lives, and the last will rise over dust.
