Job 19:19-21

International Standard Version

¹⁹ My closest friends^[a] detest me;
    even the ones I love have turned against me.
²⁰ I’m a pile of skin and bones;
    I have barely escaped by the skin of my teeth.”

²¹ “Be gracious to me, be gracious to me, my friends,
    because God’s hand has struck me.
