Job 19 Summary

Job protests that his friends have reproached him ten times without shame, and though he has erred, his error remains with himself alone. He declares that God has overthrown him and compassed him with a net; his cries go unheard and he has no judgment. God has stripped him of glory and destroyed him on every side, removing his hope like a tree. His brethren and acquaintances are estranged, servants do not answer, and even young children despise him. Yet Job appeals for pity, declaring his faith that his Redeemer liveth and shall stand at the latter day on the earth, that he shall see God with his own eyes.
