Job 6




ylt@Job:6:1 @And Job answereth and saith: --

ylt@Job:6:2 @O that my provocation were thoroughly weighed, And my calamity in balances They would lift up together!

ylt@Job:6:3 @For now, than the sands of the sea it is heavier, Therefore my words have been rash.

ylt@Job:6:4 @For arrows of the Mighty [are] with me, Whose poison is drinking up my spirit. Terrors of God array themselves [for] me!

ylt@Job:6:5 @Brayeth a wild ass over tender grass? Loweth an ox over his provender?

ylt@Job:6:6 @Eaten is an insipid thing without salt? Is there sense in the drivel of dreams?

ylt@Job:6:7 @My soul is refusing to touch! They [are] as my sickening food.

ylt@Job:6:8 @O that my request may come, That God may grant my hope!

ylt@Job:6:9 @That God would please -- and bruise me, Loose His hand and cut me off!

ylt@Job:6:10 @And yet it is my comfort, (And I exult in pain -- He doth not spare,) That I have not hidden The sayings of the Holy One.

ylt@Job:6:11 @What [is] my power that I should hope? And what mine end That I should prolong my life?

ylt@Job:6:12 @Is my strength the strength of stones? Is my flesh brazen?

ylt@Job:6:13 @Is not my help with me, And substance driven from me?

ylt@Job:6:14 @To a despiser of his friends [is] shame, And the fear of the Mighty he forsaketh.

ylt@Job:6:15 @My brethren have deceived as a brook, As a stream of brooks they pass away.

ylt@Job:6:16 @That are black because of ice, By them doth snow hide itself.

ylt@Job:6:17 @By the time they are warm they have been cut off, By its being hot they have been Extinguished from their place.

ylt@Job:6:18 @Turn aside do the paths of their way, They ascend into emptiness, and are lost.

ylt@Job:6:19 @Passengers of Tema looked expectingly, Travellers of Sheba hoped for them.

ylt@Job:6:20 @They were ashamed that one hath trusted, They have come unto it and are confounded.

ylt@Job:6:21 @Surely now ye have become the same! Ye see a downfall, and are afraid.

ylt@Job:6:22 @Is it because I said, Give to me? And, By your power bribe for me?

ylt@Job:6:23 @And, Deliver me from the hand of an adversary? And, From the hand of terrible ones ransom me?

ylt@Job:6:24 @Shew me, and I -- I keep silent, And what I have erred, let me understand.

ylt@Job:6:25 @How powerful have been upright sayings, And what doth reproof from you reprove?

ylt@Job:6:26 @For reproof -- do you reckon words? And for wind -- sayings of the desperate.

ylt@Job:6:27 @Anger on the fatherless ye cause to fall, And are strange to your friend.

ylt@Job:6:28 @And, now, please, look upon me, Even to your face do I lie?

ylt@Job:6:29 @Turn back, I pray you, let it not be perverseness, Yea, turn back again -- my righteousness [is] in it.

ylt@Job:6:30 @Is there in my tongue perverseness? Discerneth not my palate desirable things?
