American Standard Version
"My friends scoff at me: But mine eye poureth out tears unto God, "
— Job 16:20, American Standard Version
“My friends scorn me: but mine eye poureth out tears unto God.”
“My friends scoff at me. My eyes pour out tears to God,”
“My intercessor is my friend as my eyes pour out tears to God;”
“For behold my witness is in heaven, and he that knoweth my conscience is on high.”
“My friends make sport of me; to God my eyes are weeping,”
“My friends scorn me: but mine eye poureth out tears unto God.”
Although there is no violence in my hands, And my prayer is pure.
O earth, cover not thou my blood, And let my cry have noresting-place.
Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven, And he that voucheth for me is on high.
My friends scoff at me: But mine eye poureth out tears unto God,
That he would maintain the right of a man with God, And of a son of man with his neighbor!
For when a few years are come, I shall go the way whence I shall not return.
