Job 16:1–4 Then Job answered: / “I have heard many things like these; miserable comforters are you all. / Is there no end to your long-winded speeches? What provokes you to continue testifying?
Job 17:2 Surely mockers surround me, and my eyes must gaze at their rebellion.
Job 19:1–5 Then Job answered: / “How long will you torment me and crush me with your words? / Ten times now you have reproached me; you shamelessly mistreat me.
Job 30:1–10 “But now they mock me, men younger than I am, whose fathers I would have refused to entrust with my sheep dogs. / What use to me was the strength of their hands, since their vigor had left them? / Gaunt from poverty and hunger, they gnawed the dry land, and the desolate wasteland by night.
