| The World English Online Bible (WLD) | ||||||||||||||||
| Job 6:1 | Then Job answered, | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:2 | "Oh that my anguish were weighed, And all my calamity laid in the balances! | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:3 | For now it would be heavier than the sand of the seas, Therefore have my words been rash. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:4 | For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, My spirit drinks up their poison. The terrors of God set themselves in array against me. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:5 | Does the wild donkey bray when he has grass? Or does the ox low over his fodder? | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:6 | Can that which has no flavor be eaten without salt? Or is there any taste in the white of an egg? | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:7 | My soul refuses to touch them; They are as loathsome food to me. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:8 | "Oh that I might have my request; That God would grant the thing that I long for! | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:9 | Even that it would please God to crush me; That he would let loose his hand, and cut me off! | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:10 | Be it still my consolation, Yes, let me exult in pain that doesn't spare, That I have not denied the words of the Holy One. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:11 | What is my strength, that I should wait? What is my end, that I should be patient? | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:12 | Is my strength the strength of stones? Or is my flesh of brass? | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:13 | Isn't it that I have no help in me, That wisdom is driven quite from me? | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:14 | "To him who is ready to faint, kindness should be shown from his friend; Even to him who forsakes the fear of the Almighty. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:15 | My brothers have dealt deceitfully as a brook, As the channel of brooks that pass away; | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:16 | Which are black by reason of the ice, in which the snow hides itself: | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:17 | In the dry season, they vanish. When it is hot, they are consumed out of their place. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:18 | The caravans that travel beside them turn aside; They go up into the waste, and perish. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:19 | The caravans of Tema looked, The companies of Sheba waited for them. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:20 | They were put to shame because they had hoped; They came there, and were confounded. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:21 | For now you are nothing. You see a terror, and are afraid. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:22 | Did I say, 'Give to me?' Or, 'Offer a present for me from your substance?' | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:23 | Or, 'Deliver me from the adversary's hand?' Or, 'Redeem me from the hand of the oppressors?' | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:24 | "Teach me, and I will hold my peace; Cause me to understand wherein I have erred. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:25 | How forcible are words of uprightness! But your reproof, what does it reprove? | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:26 | Do you intend to reprove words, Seeing that the speeches of one who is desperate are as wind? | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:27 | Yes, you would even cast lots for the fatherless, And make merchandise of your friend. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:28 | Now therefore be pleased to look at me, For surely I shall not lie to your face. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:29 | Please return. Let there be no injustice; Yes, return again, my cause is righteous. | |||||||||||||||
| Job 6:30 | Is there injustice on my tongue? Can't my taste discern mischievous things? | |||||||||||||||
