Job 30

KJV_Strongs(i)
  1 H6810 But now they that are younger H3117   H7832 than I have me in derision [H8804]   H1 , whose fathers H3988 I would have disdained [H8804]   H7896 to have set [H8800]   H3611 with the dogs H6629 of my flock.
  2 H4100 Yea, whereto H3581 might the strength H3027 of their hands H3624 profit me, in whom old age H6 was perished [H8804]  ?
  3 H2639 For want H3720 and famine H1565 they were solitary H6207 ; fleeing [H8802]   H6723 into the wilderness H570 in former time H7722 desolate H4875 and waste.
  4 H6998 Who cut up [H8801]   H4408 mallows H7880 by the bushes H7574 , and juniper H8328 roots H3899 for their meat.
  5 H1644 They were driven forth [H8792]   H1460 from among H7321 men, (they cried [H8686]   H1590 after them as after a thief;)
  6 H7931 To dwell [H8800]   H6178 in the clifts H5158 of the valleys H2356 , in caves H6083 of the earth H3710 , and in the rocks.
  7 H7880 Among the bushes H5101 they brayed [H8799]   H2738 ; under the nettles H5596 they were gathered together [H8792]  .
  8 H1121 They were children H5036 of fools H1121 , yea, children H8034 of base men H5217 : they were viler [H8738]   H776 than the earth.
  9 H5058 And now am I their song H4405 , yea, I am their byword.
  10 H8581 They abhor [H8765]   H7368 me, they flee far [H8804]   H2820 from me, and spare [H8804]   H7536 not to spit H6440 in my face.
  11 H6605 Because he hath loosed [H8765]   H3499 my cord H6031 , and afflicted [H8762]   H7971 me, they have also let loose [H8765]   H7448 the bridle H6440 before me.
  12 H3225 Upon my right H6965 hand rise [H8799]   H6526 the youth H7971 ; they push away [H8765]   H7272 my feet H5549 , and they raise up [H8799]   H734 against me the ways H343 of their destruction.
  13 H5420 They mar [H8804]   H5410 my path H3276 , they set forward [H8686]   H1942 my calamity [H8675]   H1962   H5826 , they have no helper [H8802]  .
  14 H857 They came [H8799]   H7342 upon me as a wide H6556 breaking H8478 in of waters : in H7722 the desolation H1556 they rolled [H8701]   themselves upon me .
  15 H1091 Terrors H2015 are turned [H8717]   H7291 upon me: they pursue [H8799]   H5082 my soul H7307 as the wind H3444 : and my welfare H5674 passeth away [H8804]   H5645 as a cloud.
  16 H5315 And now my soul H8210 is poured out [H8691]   H3117 upon me; the days H6040 of affliction H270 have taken hold [H8799]   upon me.
  17 H6106 My bones H5365 are pierced [H8765]   H3915 in me in the night season H6207 : and my sinews [H8802]   H7901 take no rest [H8799]  .
  18 H7230 By the great H3581 force H3830 of my disease is my garment H2664 changed [H8691]   H247 : it bindeth me about [H8799]   H6310 as the collar H3801 of my coat.
  19 H3384 He hath cast [H8689]   H2563 me into the mire H4911 , and I am become like [H8691]   H6083 dust H665 and ashes.
  20 H7768 I cry [H8762]   H6030 unto thee, and thou dost not hear [H8799]   H5975 me: I stand up [H8804]   H995 , and thou regardest [H8709]   me not .
  21 H2015 Thou art become [H8735]   H393 cruel H6108 to me: with thy strong H3027 hand H7852 thou opposest [H8799]   thyself against me.
  22 H5375 Thou liftest me up [H8799]   H7307 to the wind H7392 ; thou causest me to ride [H8686]   H4127 upon it, and dissolvest [H8787]   H8454 my substance [H8675]   H7738   [H8762]  .
  23 H3045 For I know [H8804]   H7725 that thou wilt bring [H8686]   H4194 me to death H1004 , and to the house H4150 appointed H2416 for all living.
  24 H7971 Howbeit he will not stretch out [H8799]   H3027 his hand H1164 to the grave H7769 , though they cry H6365 in his destruction.
  25 H1058 Did not I weep [H8804]   H7186 for him that was in trouble H3117   H5315 ? was not my soul H5701 grieved [H8804]   H34 for the poor?
  26 H6960 When I looked [H8765]   H2896 for good H7451 , then evil H935 came [H8799]   H3176 unto me : and when I waited [H8762]   H216 for light H935 , there came [H8799]   H652 darkness.
  27 H4578 My bowels H7570 boiled [H8795]   H1826 , and rested [H8804]   H3117 not: the days H6040 of affliction H6923 prevented [H8765]   me.
  28 H1980 I went [H8765]   H6937 mourning [H8802]   H2535 without the sun H6965 : I stood up [H8804]   H7768 , and I cried [H8762]   H6951 in the congregation.
  29 H251 I am a brother H8577 to dragons H7453 , and a companion H1323 to owls H3284  .
  30 H5785 My skin H7835 is black [H8804]   H6106 upon me, and my bones H2787 are burned [H8804]   H2721 with heat.
  31 H3658 My harp H60 also is turned to mourning H5748 , and my organ H6963 into the voice H1058 of them that weep [H8802]  .
ERV(i) 1 But now they that are younger than I have me in derision, whose fathers I disdained to set with the dogs of my flock. 2 Yea, the strength of their hands, whereto should it profit me? men in whom ripe age is perished. 3 They are gaunt with want and famine; they gnaw the dry ground; in the gloom of wasteness and desolation. 4 They pluck salt-wort by the bushes; and the roots of the broom [are] their meat. 5 They are driven forth from the midst [of men]; they cry after them as after a thief. 6 In the clefts of the valleys must they dwell, in holes of the earth and of the rocks. 7 Among the bushes they bray; under the nettles they are gathered together. 8 [They are] children of fools, yea, children of base men; they were scourged out of the land. 9 And now I am become their song, yea, I am a byword unto them. 10 They abhor me, they stand aloof from me, and spare not to spit in my face. 11 For he hath loosed his cord, and afflicted me, and they have cast off the bridle before me. 12 Upon my right hand rise the rabble; they thrust aside my feet, and they cast up against me their ways of destruction. 13 They mar my path, they set forward my calamity, [even] men that have no helper. 14 As through a wide breach they come: in the midst of the ruin they roll themselves [upon me]. 15 Terrors are turned upon me, they chase mine honour as the wind; and my welfare is passed away as a cloud. 16 And now my soul is poured out within me; days of affliction have taken hold upon me. 17 In the night season my bones are pierced in me, and the [pains] that gnaw me take no rest. 18 By the great force [of my disease] is my garment disfigured: it bindeth me about as the collar of my coat. 19 He hath cast me into the mire, and I am become like dust and ashes. 20 I cry unto thee, and thou dost not answer me: I stand up, and thou lookest at me. 21 Thou art turned to be cruel to me: with the might of thy hand thou persecutest me. 22 Thou liftest me up to the wind, thou causest me to ride [upon it]; and thou dissolvest me in the storm. 23 For I know that thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living. 24 Surely against a ruinous heap he will not put forth his hand; though [it be] in his destruction, [one may utter] a cry because of these things. 25 Did not I weep for him that was in trouble? was not my soul grieved for the needy? 26 When I looked for good, then evil came; and when I waited for light, there came darkness. 27 My bowels boil, and rest not; days of affliction are come upon me. 28 I go mourning without the sun: I stand up in the assembly, and cry for help. 29 I am a brother to jackals, and a companion to ostriches. 30 My skin is black, [and falleth] from me, and my bones are burned with heat. 31 Therefore is my harp [turned] to mourning, and my pipe into the voice of them that weep.
