 1 Then Job answered and said,

 2 How long will ye vex my soul, and break me in pieces with words?

 3 These ten times have ye reproached me: ye are not ashamed *that* ye make yourselves strange to me.*

 4 And be it indeed *that* I have erred, mine error remaineth with myself.

 5 If indeed ye will magnify *yourselves* against me, and plead against me my reproach:

 6 Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath compassed me with his net.

 7 Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry aloud, but *there is* no judgment.*

 8 He hath fenced up my way that I cannot pass, and he hath set darkness in my paths.

 9 He hath stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown *from* my head.

 10 He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope hath he removed like a tree.

 11 He hath also kindled his wrath against me, and he counteth me unto him as *one of* his enemies.

 12 His troops come together, and raise up their way against me, and encamp round about my tabernacle.

 13 He hath put my brethren far from me, and mine acquaintance are verily estranged from me.

 14 My kinsfolk have failed, and my familiar friends have forgotten me.

 15 They that dwell in mine house, and my maids, count me for a stranger: I am an alien in their sight.

 16 I called my servant, and he gave *me* no answer; I intreated him with my mouth.

 17 My breath is strange to my wife, though I intreated for the children’s *sake* of mine own body.*

 18 Yea, young children despised me; I arose, and they spake against me.*

 19 All my inward friends abhorred me: and they whom I loved are turned against me.*

 20 My bone cleaveth to my skin and to my flesh, and I am escaped with the skin of my teeth.*

 21 Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me.

 22 Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh?

 23 Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were printed in a book!*

 24 That they were graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock for ever!

 25 For I know *that* my redeemer liveth, and *that* he shall stand at the latter *day* upon the earth:

 26 And *though* after my skin *worms* destroy this *body*, yet in my flesh shall I see God:*

 27 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; *though* my reins be consumed within me.***

 28 But ye should say, Why persecute we him, seeing the root of the matter is found in me?*

 29 Be ye afraid of the sword: for wrath *bringeth* the punishments of the sword, that ye may know *there is* a judgment.

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
[Job 19:1](/kjv/job/19/1) Then Job answered and said, 

Ver. 1. **Then Job answered and said** ] He replied as followeth to Bildad’s bitter and taunting invective. His miseries he here setteth forth graphically and tragically, granting to Bildad that he was dealt with no otherwise than if he were that wicked man described in the foregoing chapter, and yet denying himself to be any such one, by his lively hope of a joyful resurrection, such as would make a plentiful amends for all, [Job 19:26-28](/kjv/job/19/26-28) . For though Mercer make question of it yet I am out of doubt, saith Beza, that this is the true meaning of this place. And surely the whole Scripture doth not yield us a more notable or a more clear and manifest testimony, to confirm unto us the resurrection of our bodies, than this. This confession of his faith, saith Lavater, is the chief thing in this chapter, and therefore challengeth our best attention.
