1 Job spoke to his friends. ️ 2 Job said, How long will you hurt me with your words? You make me so sad. 3 You have said mean things many times. You are not sorry. You act like I am not your friend. 4 If I did wrong, that is on me. It is my own wrong. 5 If you brag and point at me and say I am bad, that is not kind. 6 Know this: God let this happen to me. I feel caught like in a net. ️ 7 I cry for help, but no one answers. I ask for help, but I do not get it. 8 God blocks my way. It is dark for me. I cannot go on. 9 He took my good name, like a hat off my head. ➡️❌ 10 He broke me all around. My hope is pulled up like a tree. ❌ 11 He is angry at me. He treats me like an enemy. 12 It feels like soldiers come at me. They stand all around my tent. ⛺ 13 My brothers are far from me. My friends stay away. ♂️↔️♀️ 14 My family will not help me. My close friends forget me. ♂️❌ 15 People in my house call me a stranger. They act like I do not belong. ➡️❓ 16 I call my helper, but he does not answer. I beg him. 17 My wife does not like me now. My children do not like me. 18 Kids laugh at me. When I stand up, they speak mean to me. ➡️ 19 Close friends hate me. The ones I loved turn on me. 20 I am skin and bones. I barely live. 21 Friends, please be kind to me. God let pain touch me. 22 Why do you keep hurting me? Why are you not done? ❓ 23 I wish my words were in a book. 24 I wish my words were cut in a rock to stay forever. ✍️ 25 I know my helper lives. He will stand on the earth at the end. ✨ 26 Even if my body dies, I will still see God. ✨ 27 I will see God with my own eyes. My inside feels weak now. 28 Do not say, “Let us hurt Job.” See that I tell the truth. ️✅ 29 Stop doing bad, or a sword will come. God will say what is right. ⚠️️
