Job 16:11

Read in context

Job 16:9–13 · Berean Standard Bible

9 His anger has torn me and opposed me; He gnashes His teeth at me. My adversary pierces me with His eyes.

10 They open their mouths against me and strike my cheeks with contempt; they join together against me.

11 God has delivered me to unjust men; He has thrown me to the clutches of the wicked.

12 I was at ease, but He shattered me; He seized me by the neck and crushed me. He has set me up as His target;

13 His archers surround me. He pierces my kidneys without mercy and spills my gall on the ground.
