Job 19:23-27
King James Version
23 Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were printed in a book!
24 That they were graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock for ever!
25 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:
27 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.

O that they were inscribed in a book!(A)
24 O that with an iron pen and with lead
they were engraved on a rock forever!(B)

and that in the end he will stand upon the earth;(C)

and my eyes shall behold, and not another.
My heart faints within me!(E)
