Job:6-7




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

dby@Job:6:2 @ Oh that my grief were thoroughly weighed, and all my calamity laid in the balances!

dby@Job:6:3 @ For now it would be heavier than the sand of the seas; therefore my words are vehement.

dby@Job:6:4 @ For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, their poison drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of +God are arrayed against me.

dby@Job:6:5 @ Doth the wild ass bray by the grass? loweth an ox over his fodder?

dby@Job:6:6 @ Shall that which is insipid be eaten without salt? Is there any taste in the white of an egg?

dby@Job:6:7 @ What my soul refuseth to touch, that is as my loathsome food.

dby@Job:6:8 @ Oh that I might have my request, and that +God would grant my desire!

dby@Job:6:9 @ And that it would please +God to crush me, that he would let loose his hand and cut me off!

dby@Job:6:10 @ Then should I yet have comfort; and in the pain which spareth not I would rejoice that I have not denied the words of the Holy One.

dby@Job:6:11 @ What is my strength, that I should hope? and what is mine end, that I should have patience?

dby@Job:6:12 @ Is my strength the strength of stones? is my flesh of brass?

dby@Job:6:13 @ Is it not that there is no help in me, and soundness is driven away from me?

dby@Job:6:14 @ For him that is fainting kindness [is meet] from his friend; or he forsaketh the fear of the Almighty.

dby@Job:6:15 @ My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a stream, as the channel of streams which pass away,

dby@Job:6:16 @ Which are turbid by reason of the ice, in which the snow hideth itself:

dby@Job:6:17 @ At the time they diminish, they are dried up; when heat affecteth them, they vanish from their place:

dby@Job:6:18 @ They wind about in the paths of their course, they go off into the waste and perish.

dby@Job:6:19 @ The caravans of Tema looked, the companies of Sheba counted on them:

dby@Job:6:20 @ They are ashamed at their hope; they come thither, and are confounded.

dby@Job:6:21 @ So now ye are nothing; ye see a terrible object and are afraid.

dby@Job:6:22 @ Did I say, Bring unto me, and make me a present from your substance?

dby@Job:6:23 @ Or, rescue me from the hand of the oppressor, and redeem me from the hand of the violent?

dby@Job:6:24 @ Teach me, and I will hold my tongue; and cause me to understand wherein I have erred.

dby@Job:6:25 @ How forcible are right words! but what doth your upbraiding reprove?

dby@Job:6:26 @ Do ye imagine to reprove words? The speeches of one that is desperate are indeed for the wind.

dby@Job:6:27 @ Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and dig [a pit] for your friend.

dby@Job:6:28 @ Now therefore if ye will, look upon me; and it shall be to your face if I lie.

dby@Job:6:29 @ Return, I pray you, let there be no wrong; yea, return again, my righteousness shall be in it.

dby@Job:6:30 @ Is there wrong in my tongue? cannot my taste discern mischievous things?

dby@Job:7:1 @ Hath not man a life of labour upon earth? and are not his days like the days of a hireling?

dby@Job:7:2 @ As a bondman earnestly desireth the shadow, and a hireling expecteth his wages,

dby@Job:7:3 @ So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed to me.

dby@Job:7:4 @ If I lie down, I say, When shall I rise up, and the darkness be gone? and I am full of tossings until the dawn.

dby@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin is broken, and suppurates.

dby@Job:7:6 @ My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are spent without hope.

dby@Job:7:7 @ Remember thou that my life is wind; mine eye shall no more see good.

dby@Job:7:8 @ The eye of him that hath seen me shall behold me no [more]: thine eyes are upon me, and I am not.

dby@Job:7:9 @ The cloud consumeth and vanisheth away; so he that goeth down to Sheol shall not come up.

dby@Job:7:10 @ He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him again.

dby@Job:7:11 @ Therefore I will not restrain my mouth: I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.

dby@Job:7:12 @ Am I a sea, or a sea-monster, that thou settest a watch over me?

dby@Job:7:13 @ When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint;

dby@Job:7:14 @ Then thou scarest me with dreams, and terrifiest me through visions;

dby@Job:7:15 @ So that my soul chooseth strangling, death, rather than my bones.

dby@Job:7:16 @ I loathe it; I shall not live always: let me alone, for my days are a breath.

dby@Job:7:17 @ What is man, that thou makest much of him? and that thou settest thy heart upon him?

dby@Job:7:18 @ And that thou visitest him every morning, triest him every moment?

dby@Job:7:19 @ How long wilt thou not look away from me, nor let me alone till I swallow down my spittle?

dby@Job:7:20 @ Have I sinned, what do I unto thee, thou Observer of men? Why hast thou set me as an object of assault for thee, so that I am become a burden to myself?

dby@Job:7:21 @ And why dost not thou forgive my transgression and take away mine iniquity? for now shall I lie down in the dust, and thou shalt seek me early, and I shall not be.

dby@Job:8:1 @ And Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,
