Job 16:17
15 I have sewn sackcloth over my skin; I have buried my horn in the dust.
16 My face is red with weeping, and deep shadows ring my eyes;
yet my hands are free of violence and my prayer is pure.
18 O earth, do not cover my blood; may my cry for help never be laid to rest.
19 Even now my witness is in heaven, and my advocate is on high.
