Job 16:9-15 English Standard Version (ESV)

9. He has torn me in his wrath and hated me;he has gnashed his teeth at me;my adversary sharpens his eyes against me.

10. Men have gaped at me with their mouth;they have struck me insolently on the cheek;they mass themselves together against me.

11. God gives me up to the ungodlyand casts me into the hands of the wicked.

12. I was at ease, and he broke me apart;he seized me by the neck and dashed me to pieces;he set me up as his target;

13. his archers surround me.He slashes open my kidneys and does not spare;he pours out my gall on the ground.

14. He breaks me with breach upon breach;he runs upon me like a warrior.

15. I have sewed sackcloth upon my skinand have laid my strength in the dust.
