Job 17:2

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Are there not mockers with me? and doth not mine eye continue in their provocation?

I am to be one that is a derision to his friend, I who call upon +God, and whom he will answer: a derision is the just upright man.

Will it be well if he should search you out? or as one mocketh at a man, will ye mock at him?

My friends are my mockers; mine eye poureth out tears unto +God.

Suffer me and I will speak; and after I have spoken, mock on!

I behaved myself as though he had been a friend, a brother to me; I bowed down in sadness, as one that mourneth for a mother.

But the passers-by reviled him, shaking their heads

And her adversary provoked her much also, to make her fret, because Jehovah had shut up her womb.
