| Job 6:2 | O that my sins, whereby I have deserved wrath, and the calamity that I suffer, were weighed in a balance. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:3 | As the sand of the sea this would appear heavier: therefore my words are full of sorrow : | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:4 | For the arrows of the Lord are in me, the rage whereof drinketh up my spirit, and the terrors of the Lord war against me. | |||||||||||||||

| Job 6:8 | Who will grant that my request may come: and that God may give me what I look for? | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:9 | And that he that hath begun may destroy me, that he may let loose his hand, and cut me off? | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:10 | And that this may be my comfort, that afflicting me with sorrow, he spare not, nor I contradict the words of the Holy One. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:11 | For what is my strength, that I can hold out? or what is my end that I should keep patience? | |||||||||||||||
