Job 16,9

Suffering

7 Sannelig, nå har Gud slitt meg ut;
du har ødelagt hele min husstand.

8 Du har skrumpet meg inn,
og det har blitt et vitne;
min avmagring reiser seg
og vitner mot meg.

I sin vrede har Gud revet meg i stykker og jaktet på meg;
han skjærer tenner mot meg.
Min motstander stirrer på meg.

10 Folk gaper mot meg med sine munner;
de slår meg på kinnet i hån
og samler seg mot meg.

11 Gud har overgitt meg til de onde
og kastet meg i hendene på de ugudelige.
