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