Job 19:13-20

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.
¹⁸ Even young ^(H)children despise me;
    when I rise they talk against me.
¹⁹ All my ^(I)intimate friends abhor me,
    and those whom I loved have turned against me.
²⁰ My ^(J)bones stick to my skin and to my flesh,
    and I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.
