Job 17:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 There are none but [a]mockers with me, and mine eye continueth in [b]their bitterness.
3 [c]Lay down now, and put me in surety for thee: who is he, that [d]will touch mine hand?
4 For thou hast hid their heart from [e]understanding: therefore shalt thou not set them up on high.
