Job 19:13-22

Total Isolation and Physical Decay

Job 19:13-22
13
He hath put my brethren far from me, and my acquaintance like strangers have departed from me.
14
My kinsmen have forsaken me, and they that knew me, have forgotten me.
15
They that dwell in my house, and my maidservants have counted me as a stranger, and I have been like an alien in their eyes.
16
I called my servant, and he gave me no answer, I entreated him with my own mouth.
17
My wife hath abhorred my breath, and I entreated the children of my womb.
18
Even fools despised me, and when I was gone from them, they spoke against me.
19
They that were sometime my counsellors, have abhorred me: and he whom I loved most is turned against me.
20
The flesh being consumed, my bone hath cleaved to my skin, and nothing but lips are left about my teeth.
21
Have pity on me, have pity on me, at least you my friends, because the hand of the Lord hath touched me.
22
Why do you persecute me as God, and glut yourselves with my flesh?
