SCRIPTURE

"And after my skin, [even] this [body], is destroyed, Then without my flesh shall I see God; Whom I, even I, shall see, on my side, And mine eyes shall behold, and not as a stranger. My heart is consumed within me. If ye say, How we will persecute him! And that the root of the matter is found in me;" — Job 19:26-28 (ASV)

Job seems to say, speaking about himself, though in the third person, "He is a devout man, can you not see that? He has faith in God, my friends, can you not perceive that? Why, then, do you persecute him so?"
