Job 19,2

1 Da svarte Job og sa:

«Hvor lenge vil dere plage meg
og knuse meg med deres ord?

3 Dere har hånet meg ti ganger;
dere skammer dere ikke over å mishandle meg.

4 Selv om jeg har feilet,
angår min feil meg alene.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
