| Job 6:1 |
|
But Job answered and said, |
|
|
|
|
| Job 6:2 |
|
Oh that my grief were throughly weighed, and
my calamity laid in the balances together! |
| |
|
|
| Job 6:3 |
|
For now it would be heavier than the sand of
the sea: therefore my words are swallowed up. |
| |
|
|
| Job 6:4 |
|
For the arrows of the Almighty are within me,
the poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves
in array against me. |
| |
|
|
| Job 6:5 |
|
Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? or
loweth the ox over his fodder? |
| |
|
|
| Job 6:6 |
|
Can that which is unsavoury be eaten without
salt? or is there any taste in the white of an egg? |
| |
|
|
| Job 6:7 |
|
The things that my soul refused to touch are
as my sorrowful meat. |
|
|
|
| Job 6:8 |
|
Oh that I might have my request; and that God
would grant me the thing that I long for! |
|
|
|
| Job 6:9 |
|
Even that it would please God to destroy me;
that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off! |
|
|
|
| Job 6:10 |
|
Then should I yet have comfort; yea, I would
harden myself in sorrow: let him not spare; for I have not concealed the words
of the Holy One. |
|
|
|
| Job 6:11 |
|
What is my strength, that I should hope? and
what is mine end, that I should prolong my life? |
|
|
|
| Job 6:12 |
|
Is my strength the strength of stones? or is
my flesh of brass? |
|
|
|
| Job 6:13 |
|
Is not my help in me? and is wisdom driven quite
from me? |
|
|
|
| Job 6:14 |
|
To him that is afflicted pity should be shewed
from his friend; but he forsaketh the fear of the Almighty. |
|
|
|
| Job 6:15 |
|
My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook,
and as the stream of brooks they pass away; |
|
|
|
| Job 6:16 |
|
Which are blackish by reason of the ice, and
wherein the snow is hid: |
|
|
|
| Job 6:17 |
|
What time they wax warm, they vanish: when it
is hot, they are consumed out of their place. |
|
|
|
| Job 6:18 |
|
The paths of their way are turned aside; they
go to nothing, and perish. |
|
|
|
| Job 6:19 |
|
The troops of Tema looked, the companies of
Sheba waited for them. |
| |
|
|
| Job 6:20 |
|
They were confounded because they had hoped;
they came thither, and were ashamed. |
| |
|
|
| Job 6:21 |
|
For now ye are nothing; ye see my casting down,
and are afraid. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 6:22 |
|
Did I say, Bring unto me? or, Give a reward
for me of your substance? |
|
|
|
|
| Job 6:23 |
|
Or, Deliver me from the enemy's hand? or, Redeem
me from the hand of the mighty? |
|
|
|
|
| Job 6:24 |
|
Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause
me to understand wherein I have erred. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 6:25 |
|
How forcible are right words! but what doth
your arguing reprove? |
|
|
|
|
| Job 6:26 |
|
Do ye imagine to reprove words, and the speeches
of one that is desperate, which are as wind? |
|
|
|
|
| Job 6:27 |
|
Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and ye dig
a pit for your friend. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 6:28 |
|
Now therefore be content, look upon me; for
it is evident unto you if I lie. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 6:29 |
|
Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity;
yea, return again, my righteousness is in it. |
|
|
|
|
| Job 6:30 |
|
Is there iniquity in my tongue? cannot my taste
discern perverse things? |
| |
