Job 16:7-14
New American Standard Bible
7 But now He has (A)exhausted me;
You have laid (B)waste all my group of loved ones.
8 And you have shriveled me up,
[a](C)It has become a witness;
And my (D)infirmity rises up against me,
It testifies to my face.
9 His anger has (E)torn me and [b]hunted me down,
He has (F)gnashed at me with His teeth;
My (G)enemy [c]glares at me.
10 They have (H)gaped at me with their mouths,
They have [d](I)slapped me on the cheek with contempt;
They have (J)massed themselves against me.
11 God hands me over to criminals,
And tosses me into the hands of the wicked.
12 I was at ease, but (K)He shattered me,
And He has grasped me by my neck and shaken me to pieces;
He has also set me up as His (L)target.
13 His (M)arrows surround me.
He splits my kidneys open without mercy;
He pours out (N)my bile on the ground.
14 He (O)breaks through me with breach after breach;
He (P)runs at me like a warrior.
Job 16:7-14
New Living Translation
7 “O God, you have ground me down
and devastated my family.
8 As if to prove I have sinned, you’ve reduced me to skin and bones.
My gaunt flesh testifies against me.
9 God hates me and angrily tears me apart.
He snaps his teeth at me
and pierces me with his eyes.
10 People jeer and laugh at me.
They slap my cheek in contempt.
A mob gathers against me.
11 God has handed me over to sinners.
He has tossed me into the hands of the wicked.
12 “I was living quietly until he shattered me.
He took me by the neck and broke me in pieces.
Then he set me up as his target,
13 and now his archers surround me.
His arrows pierce me without mercy.
The ground is wet with my blood.[a]
14 Again and again he smashes against me,
charging at me like a warrior.
