Job 30:24 in Context — Job 30

22 Tu me soulèves, tu me fais voler au-dessus du vent, Et tu m’anéantis au bruit de la tempête.

23 Car, je le sais, tu me mènes à la mort, Au rendez-vous de tous les vivants.

24 Mais celui qui va périr n’étend-il pas les mains? Celui qui est dans le malheur n’implore-t-il pas du secours?

25 N’avais-je pas des larmes pour l’infortuné? Mon cœur n’avait-il pas pitié de l’indigent?

26 J’attendais le bonheur, et le malheur est arrivé; J’espérais la lumière, et les ténèbres sont venues.
