“But when I hoped for good, evil came; when I looked for light, darkness fell.”
Job 30:26 (BSB)
Context Reading
24Yet no one stretches out his hand against a ruined man when he cries for help in his distress. 25Have I not wept for those in trouble? Has my soul not grieved for the needy? 26But when I hoped for good, evil came; when I looked for light, darkness fell. 27I am churning within and cannot rest; days of affliction confront me. 28I go about blackened, but not by the sun. I stand up in the assembly and cry for help.
