Job 19:26

Even after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God.

Job 19:26 · BSB

Job 19:26 in context

The verses around it, from Job 19.

22 Why do you persecute me as God does? Will you never get enough of my flesh?

23 I wish that my words were recorded and inscribed in a book,

24 by an iron stylus on lead, or chiseled in stone forever.

25 But I know that my Redeemer lives, and in the end He will stand upon the earth.

26 Even after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God.

27 I will see Him for myself; my eyes will behold Him, and not as a stranger. How my heart yearns within me!

28 If you say, ‘Let us persecute him, since the root of the matter lies with him,’

29 then you should fear the sword yourselves, because wrath brings punishment by the sword, so that you may know there is a judgment.”
