Job 16:18-21
American Standard Version
18 O earth, cover not thou my blood,
And let my cry [a]have no resting-place.
19 Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven,
And he that voucheth for me is on high.
20 My friends scoff at me:
But mine eye poureth out tears unto God,
21 [b]That he would maintain the right of a man with God,
And of a son of man with his neighbor!
Job 16:18-21
Lexham English Bible
18 “O earth, you should not cover my blood,
and let there be no place[a] for my cry for help.
19 So now look, my witness is in the heavens,
and he who vouches for me is in the heights.
20 My friends scorn me;
my eye pours out tears to God,
21 and it argues[b] for a mortal with God,
and as a human[c] for his friend.
