Job 16:18-22
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 16
18'Earth, do not cover my blood, And may there be no resting place for my cry. 19Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven, And my advocate is on high. 20My friends are my scoffers; My eye weeps to God, 21That one might plead for a man with God As a son of man with his neighbor! 22For when a few years are past, I shall go the way of no return.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 16
18Earth, do not cover my blood; may my cry for help find no resting place. 19Even now my witness is in heaven, and my advocate is in the heights! 20My friends scoff at me as I weep before God. 21I wish that someone might argue for a man with God just as anyone would for a friend. 22For only a few years will pass before I go the way of no return.New Living Translation
Chapter 16
18'O earth, do not conceal my blood. Let it cry out on my behalf. 19Even now my witness is in heaven. My advocate is there on high. 20My friends scorn me, but I pour out my tears to God. 21I need someone to mediate between God and me, as a person mediates between friends. 22For soon I must go down that road from which I will never return.English Standard Version
Chapter 16
18"O earth, cover not my blood, and let my cry find no resting place. 19Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and he who testifies for me is on high. 20My friends scorn me; my eye pours out tears to God, 21that he would argue the case of a man with God, as a son of man does with his neighbor. 22For when a few years have come I shall go the way from which I shall not return.New International Version
