New International Version

Job 30:5-11 New International Version (NIV)

5. They were banished from human society, shouted at as if they were thieves.

6. They were forced to live in the dry stream beds, among the rocks and in holes in the ground.

7. They brayed among the bushes and huddled in the undergrowth.

8. A base and nameless brood, they were driven out of the land.

9. “And now those young men mock me in song; I have become a byword among them.

10. They detest me and keep their distance; they do not hesitate to spit in my face.

11. Now that God has unstrung my bow and afflicted me, they throw off restraint in my presence.
