Job 30:23

Read in context

Job 30:21–25 · Berean Standard Bible

21 You have ruthlessly turned on me; You oppose me with Your strong hand.

22 You snatch me up into the wind and drive me before it; You toss me about in the storm.

23 Yes, I know that You will bring me down to death, to the place appointed for all the living.

24 Yet no one stretches out his hand to a ruined man when he cries for help in his distress.

25 Have I not wept for those in trouble? Has my soul not grieved for the needy?
