Job 16:18-21
New King James Version
18 “O earth, do not cover my blood,
And (A)let my cry have no resting place!
19 Surely even now (B)my witness is in heaven,
And my evidence is on high.
20 My friends scorn me;
My eyes pour out tears to God.
21 (C)Oh, that one might plead for a man with God,
As a man pleads for his [a]neighbor!

18 O earth, cover not thou my blood,
and let my cry have no place.

21 O that one might plead for a man with God,
as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!
