Job 17:3 in context

The verses around it, from Job 17.

1 “My spirit is broken; my days are extinguished; the grave awaits me.

2 Surely mockers surround me, and my eyes must gaze at their rebellion.

3 Give me, I pray, the pledge You demand. Who else will be my guarantor?

4 You have closed their minds to understanding; therefore You will not exalt them.

5 If a man denounces his friends for a price, the eyes of his children will fail.

6 He has made me a byword among the people, a man in whose face they spit.

7 My eyes have grown dim with grief, and my whole body is but a shadow.
