Job 19:22-27
1599 Geneva Bible
22 Why do ye persecute me, as [a]God? and are not satisfied with my [b]flesh?
23 Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were written even in a book,
24 And graven with [c]an iron pen in lead, or in stone forever!
25 For I am sure that my [d]Redeemer liveth, and he shall stand the last on the earth.
26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet shall I see God [e]in my flesh.
27 Whom I myself shall see, and mine eyes shall behold, and none other for me, though my reins are consumed within me.
