Contrast of Past Compassion and Present Misery

Job 30:25-31

Did not I weep for him whose day is hard? Grieved hath my soul for the needy.

When good I expected, then cometh evil, And I wait for light, and darkness cometh.

My bowels have boiled, and have not ceased, Gone before me have days of affliction.

Mourning I have gone without the sun, I have risen, in an assembly I cry.

A brother I have been to dragons, And a companion to daughters of the ostrich.

My skin hath been black upon me, And my bone hath burned from heat,

And my harp doth become mourning, And my organ the sound of weeping.
