King James Version with Apocrypha
"O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!"
— Job 16:21, King James Version with Apocrypha
“O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!”
“That he would maintain the right of a man with God, And of a son of man with his neighbor! ”
“that he would maintain the right of a man with God, of a son of man with his neighbor!”
“and he contends with God on behalf of man as a man pleads for his friend.”
“My friends are full of words: my eye poureth out tears to God.”
“So that he may give decision for a man in his cause with God, and between a son of man and his neighbour.”
O earth, cover not thou my blood, and let my cry have no place.
Also now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and my record is on high.
My friends scorn me: but mine eye poureth out tears unto God.
O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!
When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return.
