Job 19:7-12
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 Even when I cry out, ‘Violence!’ I am not answered;
I call aloud, but there is no justice.(A)
8 He has walled up my way so that I cannot pass,
and he has set darkness upon my paths.(B)
9 He has stripped my glory from me
and taken the crown from my head.(C)
10 He breaks me down on every side, and I am gone;
he has uprooted my hope like a tree.(D)
11 He has kindled his wrath against me
and counts me as his adversary.(E)
12 His troops come on together;
they have thrown up siegeworks[a] against me
and encamp around my tent.(F)

Job 19:7-12
International Standard Version
Job Accuses God of Being Angry
7 “Although I cried out ‘Violence!’
I received no answer;
I cried for help,
but there was no justice.
8 He blocked my path,
so I cannot pass;
and he turned out the lights on my pathways.
9 “He has stripped me of my honor;
he has stolen the crown off my head!
10 He is breaking me down on every side,
and now it’s too late for me;[a]
he has uprooted my hopes like a tree.
11 His anger burns against me;
he regards me as his adversary.
12 His troops march[b] in a column[c] against me,
erecting their siege ramps against me;
they surround my tent.”
