\\ 
\\ [[commentaar:job16-1|1]] Then Job answered and said,
\\ [[commentaar:job16-2|2]] I have heard many such things: miserable comforters are ye all.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-3|3]] Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldeneth thee that thou answerest?
\\ [[commentaar:job16-4|4]] I also could speak as ye do: if your soul were in my soul's stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake mine head at you.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-5|5]] But I would strengthen you with my mouth, and the moving of my lips should asswage your grief.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-6|6]] Though I speak, my grief is not asswaged: and though I forbear, what am I eased?
\\ [[commentaar:job16-7|7]] But now he hath made me weary: thou hast made desolate all my company.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-8|8]] And thou hast filled me with wrinkles, which is a witness against me: and my leanness rising up in me beareth witness to my face.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-9|9]] He teareth me in his wrath, who hateth me: he gnasheth upon me with his teeth; mine enemy sharpeneth his eyes upon me.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-10|10]] They have gaped upon me with their mouth; they have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully; they have gathered themselves together against me.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-11|11]] God hath delivered me to the ungodly, and turned me over into the hands of the wicked.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-12|12]] I was at ease, but he hath broken me asunder: he hath also taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces, and set me up for his mark.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-13|13]] His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-14|14]] He breaketh me with breach upon breach, he runneth upon me like a giant.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-15|15]] I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and defiled my horn in the dust.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-16|16]] My face is foul with weeping, and on my eyelids is the shadow of death;
\\ [[commentaar:job16-17|17]] Not for any injustice in mine hands: also my prayer is pure.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-18|18]] O earth, cover not thou my blood, and let my cry have no place.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-19|19]] Also now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and my record is on high.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-20|20]] My friends scorn me: but mine eye poureth out tears unto God.
\\ [[commentaar:job16-21|21]] O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!
\\ [[commentaar:job16-22|22]] When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return.
