21 “Have pity on me my friends, have pity, for the hand of God has struck me.
22 Why do you pursue me—like God? Are you not satisfied with my flesh?
23 Oh that my words were written, that they were recorded in a scroll
24 that with an iron pen and lead, they were engraved in stone forever!
25 “Yet I know that my Redeemer lives, and in the end, He will stand on earth.
26 Even after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God;
27 I myself will see Him with my own eyes, I and not a stranger. My heart grows weak within me.
