“Behold, (A)I cry, ‘Violence!’ but I get no answer;
I shout for help, but there is no justice.
He has (B)walled up my way so that I cannot pass,
And He has put (C)darkness on my paths.
He has (D)stripped my honor from me
And removed the (E)crown from my head.
10 He (F)breaks me down on every side, and I am gone;
And He has uprooted my (G)hope (H)like a tree.
11 He has also (I)kindled His anger against me
And (J)counted me as His adversary.
12 His (K)troops come together,
And (L)build up their [a]way against me
And camp around my tent.

  1. Job 19:12 Siegework

I cry out, “Violence!” but get no response;(A)
I call for help, but there is no justice.
He has blocked(B) my way so that I cannot pass through;
he has veiled my paths with darkness.(C)
He has stripped me of my honor
and removed the crown from my head.
10 He tears me down on every side so that I am ruined.[a]
He uproots my hope like a tree.(D)
11 His anger(E) burns against me,
and he regards me as one of his enemies.(F)
12 His troops advance together;
they construct a ramp[b] against me
and camp(G) around my tent.
