Job 16:17-21

Although there is no violence in my hands, And my prayer is pure.

“Earth, do not cover my blood, And may there be no resting place for my cry.

“Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven, And my advocate is on high.

“My friends are my scoffers; My eye weeps to God,

That one might plead for a man with God As a son of man with his neighbor!
