Job 16:5-12 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

5. I would comfort you also with words, and would wag my head over you.

6. I would strengthen you with my mouth, and would move my lips, as sparing you.

7. But what shall I do? If I speak, my pain will not rest: and if I hold my peace, it will not depart from me.

8. But now my sorrow hath oppressed me, and all my limbs are brought to nothing.

9. My wrinkles bear witness against me, and a false speaker riseth up against my face, contradicting me.

10. He hath gathered together his fury against me, and threatening me he hath gnashed with his teeth upon me: my enemy hath beheld me with terrible eyes.

11. They have opened their mouths upon me, and reproaching me they have struck me on the cheek, they are filled with my pains.

12. God hath shut me up with the unjust man, and hath delivered me into the hands of the wicked.
