Job 16:18-22 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

18. Earth, do not cover my blood;may my cry for help find no resting place.

19. Even now my witness is in heaven,and my advocate is in the heights!

20. My friends scoff at meas I weep before God.

21. I wish that someone might arbitratebetween a man and God just as a man pleads for his friend.

22. For only a few years will passbefore I go the way of no return.
