Job 17:2-7
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 17
2Mockers are certainly with me, And my eye gazes on their provocation. 3'Make a pledge for me with Yourself; Who is there that will be my guarantor? 4For You have kept their hearts away from understanding; Therefore You will not exalt them. 5He who informs against friends for a share of the spoils, The eyes of his children also will perish. 6'But He has made me a proverb among the people, And I am one at whom people spit. 7My eye has also become inexpressive because of grief, And all my body parts are like a shadow.King James Version
Chapter 17
2Are there not mockers with me? and doth not mine eye continue in their provocation? 3Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who is he that will strike hands with me? 4For thou hast hid their heart from understanding: therefore shalt thou not exalt them. 5He that speaketh flattery to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail. 6He hath made me also a byword of the people; and aforetime I was as a tabret. 7Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow.Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 17
2Surely there are mockers about me, and my eye dwells on their provocation. 3“Lay down a pledge for me with you; who is there who will put up security for me? 4Since you have closed their hearts to understanding, therefore you will not let them triumph. 5He who informs against his friends to get a share of their property— the eyes of his children will fail. 6“He has made me a byword of the peoples, and I am one before whom men spit. 7My eye has grown dim from vexation, and all my members are like a shadow.New International Version
