=====Job / Job 30 ===== ^ [[bijbels:kjv:|Terug naar Bijbel index]] ^ [[bijbels:kjv:tekst:job|Terug naar Boek index]] ^ \\ \\ [[commentaar:job30-1|1]] But now they that are younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I would have disdained to have set with the dogs of my flock. \\ [[commentaar:job30-2|2]] Yea, whereto might the strength of their hands profit me, in whom old age was perished? \\ [[commentaar:job30-3|3]] For want and famine they were solitary; fleeing into the wilderness in former time desolate and waste. \\ [[commentaar:job30-4|4]] Who cut up mallows by the bushes, and juniper roots for their meat. \\ [[commentaar:job30-5|5]] They were driven forth from among men, (they cried after them as after a thief;) \\ [[commentaar:job30-6|6]] To dwell in the clifts of the valleys, in caves of the earth, and in the rocks. \\ [[commentaar:job30-7|7]] Among the bushes they brayed; under the nettles they were gathered together. \\ [[commentaar:job30-8|8]] They were children of fools, yea, children of base men: they were viler than the earth. \\ [[commentaar:job30-9|9]] And now am I their song, yea, I am their byword. \\ [[commentaar:job30-10|10]] They abhor me, they flee far from me, and spare not to spit in my face. \\ [[commentaar:job30-11|11]] Because he hath loosed my cord, and afflicted me, they have also let loose the bridle before me. \\ [[commentaar:job30-12|12]] Upon my right hand rise the youth; they push away my feet, and they raise up against me the ways of their destruction. \\ [[commentaar:job30-13|13]] They mar my path, they set forward my calamity, they have no helper. \\ [[commentaar:job30-14|14]] They came upon me as a wide breaking in of waters: in the desolation they rolled themselves upon me. \\ [[commentaar:job30-15|15]] Terrors are turned upon me: they pursue my soul as the wind: and my welfare passeth away as a cloud. \\ [[commentaar:job30-16|16]] And now my soul is poured out upon me; the days of affliction have taken hold upon me. \\ [[commentaar:job30-17|17]] My bones are pierced in me in the night season: and my sinews take no rest. \\ [[commentaar:job30-18|18]] By the great force of my disease is my garment changed: it bindeth me about as the collar of my coat. \\ [[commentaar:job30-19|19]] He hath cast me into the mire, and I am become like dust and ashes. \\ [[commentaar:job30-20|20]] I cry unto thee, and thou dost not hear me: I stand up, and thou regardest me not. \\ [[commentaar:job30-21|21]] Thou art become cruel to me: with thy strong hand thou opposest thyself against me. \\ [[commentaar:job30-22|22]] Thou liftest me up to the wind; thou causest me to ride upon it, and dissolvest my substance. \\ [[commentaar:job30-23|23]] For I know that thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living. \\ [[commentaar:job30-24|24]] Howbeit he will not stretch out his hand to the grave, though they cry in his destruction. \\ [[commentaar:job30-25|25]] Did not I weep for him that was in trouble? was not my soul grieved for the poor? \\ [[commentaar:job30-26|26]] When I looked for good, then evil came unto me: and when I waited for light, there came darkness. \\ [[commentaar:job30-27|27]] My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me. \\ [[commentaar:job30-28|28]] I went mourning without the sun: I stood up, and I cried in the congregation. \\ [[commentaar:job30-29|29]] I am a brother to dragons, and a companion to owls. \\ [[commentaar:job30-30|30]] My skin is black upon me, and my bones are burned with heat. \\ [[commentaar:job30-31|31]] My harp also is turned to mourning, and my organ into the voice of them that weep. ^ [[job29| vorig hoofdstuk]] ^ [[job31|volgend hoofdstuk]] ^
