Job 30:21

DoubtSuffering

19 He throws me into the mud, and I have become like dust and ashes.

20 I cry out to You for help, but You do not answer; when I stand up, You merely look at me.

You have ruthlessly turned on me; You oppose me with Your strong hand.

22 You snatch me up into the wind and drive me before it; You toss me about in the storm.

23 Yes, I know that You will bring me down to death, to the place appointed for all the living.
