Job 6:14-21

14 “He who awithholds
Syriac, Vulgate (compare Targum); the meaning of the Hebrew word is uncertain
kindness from a cfriend
forsakes the fear of the Almighty.
15My dbrothers are etreacherous as a torrent-bed,
as torrential fstreams that pass away,
16which are dark with ice,
and where the snow hides itself.
17When they melt, they disappear;
when it is hot, they vanish from their place.
18The caravans turn aside from their course;
they go up into gthe waste and perish.
19The caravans of hTema look,
the travelers of iSheba hope.
20They are jashamed because they were confident;
they come there and are kdisappointed.
21For you have now become nothing;
you see my calamity and are afraid.

Psalms 38:10-11

10My heart throbs; my strength fails me,
and lthe light of my eyesit also has gone from me.
11My mfriends and companions nstand aloof from my oplague,
and my nearest kin pstand far off.

Psalms 69:20

20 qReproaches have broken my heart,
so that I am in rdespair.
I slooked for tpity, but there was none,
and for ucomforters, but I found none.

Psalms 142:4

4 vLook to the wright and see:
xthere is none who takes notice of me;
yno refuge remains to me;
no one cares for my soul.

Proverbs 21:13

13 zWhoever closes his ear to the cry of the poor
will himself call out and not be answered.

Proverbs 24:11-12

11 aaRescue those who are being taken away to death;
hold back those who are stumbling to the slaughter.
12If you say, “Behold, we did not know this,”
abdoes not he who acweighs the heart perceive it?
Does not he who adkeeps watch over your soul know it,
and will he not repay man aeaccording to his work?
