Job 19:13-19

13 “He has put my ^abrothers far from me,
and ^bthose who knew me are wholly estranged from me.
14 My relatives ^chave failed me,
my close ^dfriends have forgotten me.
15 The guests ^ein my house and my maidservants count me as a stranger;
I have become a foreigner in their eyes.
16 I call to my servant, but he gives me no answer;
I must plead with him with my mouth for mercy.
17 My breath is strange to my ^fwife,
and I am a stench to the children of ^gmy own mother.
18 Even young ^hchildren despise me;
when I rise they talk against me.
19 All my ⁱintimate friends abhor me,
and those whom I loved have turned against me.

Jeremiah 2:28

28 But ^jwhere are your gods
that you made for yourself?
Let them arise, ^kif they can save you,
in your time of trouble;
for ^las many as your cities
are your gods, O Judah.

Jeremiah 30:14

14 ^mAll your lovers have forgotten you;
they care nothing for you;
for I have dealt you the blow of ⁿan enemy,
the punishment ^oof a merciless foe,
because your guilt is great,
^pbecause your sins are flagrant.

Jeremiah 37:7-9

^wamong all her lovers
she has ^xnone to comfort her;
^yall her friends have dealt treacherously with her;
they have become her enemies.

Lamentations 4:17
