| 16:1 | Then Job answered and said, |
| 16:2 | I have heard many such things: miserable comforters are ye all. |
| 16:3 | Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldeneth thee that thou answerest? |
| 16:4 | 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. |
| 16:5 | But I would strengthen you with my mouth, and the moving of my lips should asswage your grief. |
| 16:6 | Though I speak, my grief is not asswaged: and though I forbear, what am I eased? |
| 16:7 | But now he hath made me weary: thou hast made desolate all my company. |
| 16:8 | 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. |
| 16:9 | He teareth me in his wrath, who hateth me: he gnasheth upon me with his teeth; mine enemy sharpeneth his eyes upon me. |
| 16:10 | They have gaped upon me with their mouth; they have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully; they have gathered themselves together against me. |
| 16:11 | God hath delivered me to the ungodly, and turned me over into the hands of the wicked. |
| 16:12 | 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. |
| 16:13 | His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground. |
| 16:14 | He breaketh me with breach upon breach, he runneth upon me like a giant. |
| 16:15 | I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and defiled my horn in the dust. |
| 16:16 | My face is foul with weeping, and on my eyelids is the shadow of death; |
| 16:17 | Not for any injustice in mine hands: also my prayer is pure. |
| 16:18 | O earth, cover not thou my blood, and let my cry have no place. |
| 16:19 | Also now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and my record is on high. |
| 16:19 | 現今、在天有我的見證、在上有我的中保。 |
| 16:19 | 现今，在天有我的见证，在上有我的中保。 |
| psm:89:37 | It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah. |
| rom:1:9 | For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; |
| 2co:1:23 | Moreover I call God for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet unto Corinth. |
| phl:1:8 | For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ. |
| 1ts:2:5 | For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; God is witness: |
| 1ts:2:10 | Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe: |
| COBL | |
| 16:20 | My friends scorn me: but mine eye poureth out tears unto God. |
| 16:21 | O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour! |
| 16:22 | When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return. |
