RF JOB 30:1 But they now are laughing at me
Who are lower in rank than myself,—
Whose fathers I would have disdained
To put with the dogs of my flocks!
RF JOB 30:2 What to me is the strength of their hands
Whose whole vigour has wasted away?
RF JOB 30:3 Gaunt with hunger and famine, they gnawed,
And raged yesterday in the wastes!
RF JOB 30:4 And plucking up cress in the bush
And the roots of the bracken for food!
RF JOB 30:5 They were chased away out of our midst;
They roared after them as after thieves;
RF JOB 30:6 They dwelt in the rents of ravines,
In holes in the dust, and in caves!
RF JOB 30:7 In the shelter of bushes they brayed,
And under the thorns they were wed!
RF JOB 30:8 Sons of tramps—yes, men with no name—
They were driven away from the land.
RF JOB 30:9 But I am become now their song,
And I am become their contempt!
RF JOB 30:10 They insult, and they wave me away,
And refrain not to spit in my face,
RF JOB 30:11 Since He loosened my nerve and depressed,
In my presence they throw off the rein.
RF JOB 30:12 On the right a mob rise at my feet,
They point and heap insults on me.
RF JOB 30:13 They roughen my paths to annoy,
And do mischief that profits them not.
RF JOB 30:14 They come on, as though thro' a breach,
With roaring they roll themselves up;
Their terrors are turned upon me.
RF JOB 30:15 My nobility flies like the wind,
And my power has passed like a cloud.
RF JOB 30:16 My life now is poured out from me
And times of depression have seized;
RF JOB 30:17 My bones shoot within me at night,
And their gnawing will not let me rest;
RF JOB 30:18 My clothes must be stripped off by force,
I am galled by the band of my coat.
RF JOB 30:19 I am flung out, as tho' I were dirt,
And become like to ashes and dust!
RF JOB 30:20 I shout, but they answer me not.
I stand up. But they look not on me!
RF JOB 30:21 How fiercely upon me you turn
To desolate by your strong hand!
RF JOB 30:22 You lift me to ride on the wind
And melt me away in a mist!
RF JOB 30:23 For I know you will bring me to death,
To the home fixed for all who may live!
RF JOB 30:24 Yet He lays not His hand on my wreck
Though I should be glad of my end!—
RF JOB 30:25 I wept in their time of distress,
And troubled my mind for the poor.
RF JOB 30:26 Yet when I hoped good, evil came;
When hoping for light, came the gloom!
RF JOB 30:27 My bowels boil up and rest not;
I'm confronted by days of distress!
RF JOB 30:28 I am blackened, but not by the heat;
I rise in the public and roar;
RF JOB 30:29 I am come to be brother to snakes.
And mate with the daughters of woe!
RF JOB 30:30 My blackened skin peels off in strips,
And my bones are burnt up by the heat,
RF JOB 30:31 And my harp has become to me grief,
And my flute as the sobbing of tears!
