Job 6




mkjv@Job:6:1 @ And Job answered and said,

mkjv@Job:6:2 @ Oh that my grief were but weighed, and my ruin laid in the balances together!

mkjv@Job:6:3 @ For now it would be heavier than the sand of the sea; therefore my words have been rash.

mkjv@Job:6:4 @ For the arrows of the Almighty [are] within me, their fury [is] drinking my spirit; the terrors of God are set against me.

mkjv@Job:6:5 @ Does the wild ass bray [when he has] grass? Or does the ox low over his fodder?

mkjv@Job:6:6 @ Can that which has no taste be eaten without salt? Or is there taste in the white of an egg?

mkjv@Job:6:7 @ My soul refuses to touch them; they [are] sickening food to me.

mkjv@Job:6:8 @ Oh that I might have my desire, and that God would grant the thing that I long for!

mkjv@Job:6:9 @ Even that it would please God to destroy me; that He would loose His hand and cut me off!

mkjv@Job:6:10 @ And it is yet my comfort; yea, I would rejoice in pain, though He did not spare me; for I have not hidden the words of the Holy One.

mkjv@Job:6:11 @ What [is] my strength, that I should hope? And what [is] my end, that I should be patient?

mkjv@Job:6:12 @ [Is] my strength the strength of stones? Or [is] my flesh bronze?

mkjv@Job:6:13 @ [Is] not my help in me? And is wisdom fully driven away from me?

mkjv@Job:6:14 @ To him who is afflicted, pity is [due] from his friend, but he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.

mkjv@Job:6:15 @ My brothers have dealt deceitfully as a torrent; they pass away as the streams of torrents,

mkjv@Job:6:16 @ [torrents] black from ice, in which the snow hides itself.

mkjv@Job:6:17 @ When they become warm, they go away; when it is hot, they vanish out of their place.

mkjv@Job:6:18 @ The paths of their way are turned aside; they go to nothing and are lost.

mkjv@Job:6:19 @ The troops of Tema looked; the companies of Sheba hoped for them.

mkjv@Job:6:20 @ They were ashamed because they had hoped; they came there and were ashamed.

mkjv@Job:6:21 @ Surely now you are like them; you see [my] casting down, and are afraid.

mkjv@Job:6:22 @ Did I say, Give to me? or, Offer a bribe for me from your wealth;

mkjv@Job:6:23 @ or, Deliver me from the enemy's hand; or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty?

mkjv@Job:6:24 @ Teach me, and I will be silent; and cause me to understand where I have gone astray.

mkjv@Job:6:25 @ Right words are powerful, but what does your arguing argue?

mkjv@Job:6:26 @ Do you intend to criticize words, and the speeches of one who is hopeless, [that are] as wind?

mkjv@Job:6:27 @ Yea, you cause [anger] to fall on the fatherless, and you dig [a pit] for your friend.

mkjv@Job:6:28 @ And now, please look on me; for if I lie, [it is] before your face.

mkjv@Job:6:29 @ Turn back, please let there be no sin; yea, return again, my righteousness [is] in this matter.

mkjv@Job:6:30 @ Is there wrong in my tongue? Cannot my taste discern desirable things?
