Job 16:18-21
New King James Version
18 “O earth, do not cover my blood,
And (A)let my cry have no resting place!
19 Surely even now (B)my witness is in heaven,
And my evidence is on high.
20 My friends scorn me;
My eyes pour out tears to God.
21 (C)Oh, that one might plead for a man with God,
As a man pleads for his [a]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.
