Job 16:17 in Context — Job 16
15 J’ai cousu un sac sur ma peau; J’ai roulé ma tête dans la poussière.
16 Les pleurs ont altéré mon visage; L’ombre de la mort est sur mes paupières.
17 Je n’ai pourtant commis aucune violence, Et ma prière fut toujours pure.
18 O terre, ne couvre point mon sang, Et que mes cris prennent librement leur essor!
19 Déjà maintenant, mon témoin est dans le ciel, Mon témoin est dans les lieux élevés.
