Job 30:24

Revised Standard Version (RSV-CI)

“Yet does not one in a heap of ruins stretch out his hand, and in his disaster cry for help?

See the chapter Copy

Let them not say to themselves, “Aha, we have our heart's desire!” Let them not say, “We have swallowed him up.”

Behold, I cry out, ‘Violence!’ but I am not answered; I call aloud, but there is no justice.

“So perish all thine enemies, O Lord! But thy friends be like the sun as he rises in his might.” And the land had rest for forty years.

Oh, that I had one to hear me! (Here is my signature! let the Almighty answer me!) Oh, that I had the indictment written by my adversary!
