Job 19:13-20
New King James Version
13 “He(A) has removed my brothers far from me,
And my acquaintances are completely estranged from me.
14 My relatives have failed,
And my close friends have forgotten me.
15 Those who dwell in my house, and my maidservants,
Count me as a stranger;
I am an alien in their sight.
16 I call my servant, but he gives no answer;
I beg him with my mouth.
17 My breath is offensive to my wife,
And I am [a]repulsive to the children of my own body.
18 Even (B)young children despise me;
I arise, and they speak against me.
19 (C)All my close friends abhor me,
And those whom I love have turned against me.
20 (D)My bone clings to my skin and to my flesh,
And I have escaped by the skin of my teeth.
