ESVEnglish Standard Version

For I know that my Redeemer lives,

and at the last he will stand upon the earth.

And after my skin has been thus destroyed,

yet in my flesh I shall see God,

whom I shall see for myself,

and my eyes shall behold, and not another.

My heart faints within me!

NIVNew International Version (2011)

I know that my redeemer lives,

and that in the end he will stand on the earth.

And after my skin has been destroyed,

yet in my flesh I will see God;

I myself will see him

with my own eyes—I, and not another.

How my heart yearns within me!

CSBChristian Standard Bible

But I know that my Redeemer lives,

and at the end he will stand on the dust.

Even after my skin has been destroyed,

yet I will see God in my flesh.

I will see him myself;

my eyes will look at him, and not as a stranger.

My heart longs within me.

NLTNew Living Translation

“But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives,

and he will stand upon the earth at last.

And after my body has decayed,

yet in my body I will see God!

I will see him for myself.

Yes, I will see him with my own eyes.

I am overwhelmed at the thought!

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

But I myself know that my redeemer is alive,

and at the last he will stand up upon the earth.

And after my skin has been thus destroyed,

but from my flesh I will see God,

whom I will see for myself,

and whom my eyes will see and not a stranger.

My heart faints within me.

KJV 1900King James Version

For I know that my redeemer liveth,

And that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:

And though after my skin worms destroy this body,

Yet in my flesh shall I see God:

Whom I shall see for myself,

And mine eyes shall behold, and not another;

Though my reins be consumed within me.
