Job 19:17

15 My guests and maidservants count me as a stranger; I am a foreigner in their sight.

16 I call for my servant, but he does not answer, though I implore him with my own mouth.

My breath is repulsive to my wife, and I am loathsome to my own family.

18 Even little boys scorn me; when I appear, they deride me.

19 All my best friends despise me, and those I love have turned against me.
