Jesus Is LORD

ASV Job

Chapter 17

17:1 My spirit is consumed, my days are extinct,
The grave is ready for me.
17:2 Surely there are mockers with me,
And mine eye dwelleth upon their provocation.
17:3 Give now a pledge, be surety for me with thyself;
Who is there that will strike hands with me?
17:4 For thou hast hid their heart from understanding:
Therefore shalt thou not exalt them.
17:5 He that denounceth his friends for a prey,
Even the eyes of his children shall fail.
17:6 But he hath made me a byword of the people;
And they spit in my face.
17:7 Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow,
And all my members are as a shadow.
17:8 Upright men shall be astonished at this,
And the innocent shall stir up himself against the godless.
17:9 Yet shall the righteous hold on his way,
And he that hath clean hands shall wax stronger and stronger.
17:10 But as for you all, come on now again;
And I shall not find a wise man among you.
17:11 My days are past, my purposes are broken off,
Even the thoughts of my heart.
17:12 They change the night into day:
The light, say they, is near unto the darkness.
17:13 If I look for Sheol as my house;
If I have spread my couch in the darkness;
17:14 If I have said to corruption, Thou art my father;
To the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister;
17:15 Where then is my hope?
And as for my hope, who shall see it?
17:16 It shall go down to the bars of Sheol,
When once there is rest in the dust.
