Job 30:20-26
New American Standard Bible
20 I (A)cry out to You for help, but You do not answer me;
I stand up, and You turn Your attention against me.
21 You have [a]become cruel to me;
With the strength of Your hand You (B)persecute me.
22 You (C)lift me up to the wind and make me ride it;
And You dissolve me in a storm.
23 For I know that You (D)will bring me to death,
And to the (E)house of meeting for all living.
24 “Yet does one in a heap of ruins not reach out with his hand,
Or in his disaster does he not (F)cry out for help?
25 Have I not (G)wept for the [b]one whose life is hard?
Was my soul not grieved for (H)the needy?
26 When I (I)expected good, evil came;
When I waited for light, (J)darkness came.
