Job 3:24

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters.

How long will thou not look away from me, nor let me alone till I swallow down my spittle?

Thou have fed them with the bread of tears, and given them tears to drink in large measure.

For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping,

My God, my God, why have thou forsaken me, far from helping me, [and] the words of my groaning?

When I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning all the day long.

I am faint and severely bruised. I have groaned because of the disquietness of my heart.

We all roar like bears, and moan greatly like doves. We look for justice, but there is none, for salvation, but it is far off from us.

Yea, when I cry, and call for help, he shuts out my prayer.

Son of man, eat thy bread with quaking, and drink thy water with trembling and with fearfulness.
