“Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard. I cry for help, but there is no justice.
Job's friends had passed a very severe censure upon him as a wicked man because he was so grievously afflicted; now here he tells them how ill he took it to be so censured. Bildad had twice begun with a How long (Job 8:2, Job 18:2), and therefore Job, being now to answer him particularly, begins with a How long too, Job 19:2.
Commenting on Job 19:1-7
Job 19:7-11 7 Behold I cry violence, and I am not heard; I cry for help, and there is no justice. 8 My way He hath fenced round, that I cannot pass over, And He hath set darkness on my paths. 9 He hath stripped me of mine honour, And taken away the crown from my head.
Commenting on Job 19:7-11
wrong--violence: brought on him by God. no judgment--God will not remove my calamities, and so vindicate my just cause; and my friends will not do justice to my past character.
