Job 19:23-27

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²³ “O that my words were written down!
    O that they were inscribed in a book!
²⁴ O that with an iron pen and with lead
    they were engraved on a rock forever!
²⁵ For I know that my Redeemer^[a] lives,
    and that at the last he^[b] will stand upon the earth;^[c]
26 and after my skin has been thus destroyed,
    then in^[d] my flesh I shall see God,^[e]
27 whom I shall see on my side,^[f]
    and my eyes shall behold, and not another.
    My heart faints within me!
