Job 16:15

¹³ His archers surround me. He pierces my kidneys without mercy and spills my gall on the ground.

¹⁴ He breaks me with wound upon wound; He rushes me like a mighty warrior.

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;

¹⁷ yet my hands are free of violence and my prayer is pure.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
