New International Reader's Version

Job 30:17-21 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

17. At night my bones hurt. My gnawing pains never stop.

18. God's great power becomes like clothes to me. He chokes me like the neck of my shirt.

19. He throws me down into the mud. I'm nothing but dust and ashes.

20. "God, I cry out to you. But you don't answer me. I stand up. But all you do is look at me.

21. You do mean things to me. Your mighty hand attacks me.
