Job 19:13-17
English Standard Version
13 “He has put my (A)brothers far from me,
and (B)those who knew me are wholly estranged from me.
14 My relatives (C)have failed me,
my close (D)friends have forgotten me.
15 The guests (E)in my house and my maidservants count me as a stranger;
I have become a foreigner in their eyes.
16 I call to my servant, but he gives me no answer;
I must plead with him with my mouth for mercy.
17 My breath is strange to my (F)wife,
and I am a stench to the children of (G)my own mother.
Job 19:13-17
New International Version
13 “He has alienated my family(A) from me;
my acquaintances are completely estranged from me.(B)
14 My relatives have gone away;
my closest friends(C) have forgotten me.
15 My guests(D) and my female servants(E) count me a foreigner;
they look on me as on a stranger.
16 I summon my servant, but he does not answer,
though I beg him with my own mouth.
17 My breath is offensive to my wife;
I am loathsome(F) to my own family.
Job 6:15-23
English Standard Version
15 My (A)brothers are (B)treacherous as a torrent-bed,
as torrential (C)streams that pass away,
16 which are dark with ice,
and where the snow hides itself.
17 When they melt, they disappear;
when it is hot, they vanish from their place.
18 The caravans turn aside from their course;
they go up into (D)the waste and perish.
19 The caravans of (E)Tema look,
the travelers of (F)Sheba hope.
20 They are (G)ashamed because they were confident;
they come there and are (H)disappointed.
21 For you have now become nothing;
you see my calamity and are afraid.
22 Have I said, ‘Make me a gift’?
Or, ‘From your wealth offer a bribe for me’?
23 Or, ‘Deliver me from the adversary's hand’?
Or, ‘Redeem me from the hand of (I)the ruthless’?
Job 6:15-23
New International Version
15 But my brothers are as undependable as intermittent streams,(A)
as the streams that overflow
16 when darkened by thawing ice
and swollen with melting snow,(B)
17 but that stop flowing in the dry season,
and in the heat(C) vanish from their channels.
18 Caravans turn aside from their routes;
they go off into the wasteland and perish.
19 The caravans of Tema(D) look for water,
the traveling merchants of Sheba(E) look in hope.
20 They are distressed, because they had been confident;
they arrive there, only to be disappointed.(F)
21 Now you too have proved to be of no help;
you see something dreadful and are afraid.(G)
22 Have I ever said, ‘Give something on my behalf,
pay a ransom(H) for me from your wealth,(I)
23 deliver me from the hand of the enemy,
rescue me from the clutches of the ruthless’?(J)
Proverbs 10:15
English Standard Version
15 (A)A rich man's wealth is his strong city;
the poverty of the poor is their ruin.
