Job 16:18-21
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
18 “O earth, do not cover my blood;
let my outcry find no resting place.(A)
19 Even now my witness is in heaven,
and my advocate is on high.(B)
20 My friends scorn me;
my eye pours out tears to God,
21 that he would maintain the right of a mortal with God,
as[a] one does for a neighbor.(C)

18 “O earth, cover not my blood,
and let my cry find no resting place.
19 Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven,
and he that vouches for me is on high.

21 that he would maintain the right of a man with God,
like[a] that of a man with his neighbor.
