acv Job:6-7
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?
acv@Job:7:1 @ Is there not a warfare to man upon earth? And are not his days like the days of a hireling?
acv@Job:7:2 @ As a servant who earnestly desires the shadow, and as a hireling who looks for his wages,
acv@Job:7:3 @ so I am made to possess months of misery, and wearisome nights are appointed to me.
acv@Job:7:4 @ When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? And I am full of tossing to and fro to the dawning of the day.
acv@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust. My skin closes up, and breaks out afresh.
acv@Job:7:6 @ My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are spent without hope.
acv@Job:7:7 @ O remember that my life is a breath. My eye shall no more see good.
acv@Job:7:8 @ The eye of him who sees me shall behold me no more. Thine eyes shall be upon me, but I shall not be.
acv@Job:7:9 @ As the cloud is consumed and vanishes away, so he who goes down to Sheol shall come up no more.
acv@Job:7:10 @ He shall return no more to his house, nor shall his place know him any more.
acv@Job:7:11 @ Therefore I will not refrain my mouth. I will speak in the anguish of my spirit. I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
acv@Job:7:12 @ Am I a sea, or a sea-monster, that thou set a watch over me?
acv@Job:7:13 @ When I say, My bed shall comfort me. My couch shall ease my complaint.
acv@Job:7:14 @ Then thou scare me with dreams, and terrify me through visions,
acv@Job:7:15 @ so that my soul chooses strangling and death rather than [these] my bones.
acv@Job:7:16 @ I loathe [my life]. I would not live always. Let me alone, for my days are vanity.
acv@Job:7:17 @ What is man, that thou should magnify him, and that thou should set thy mind upon him,
acv@Job:7:18 @ and that thou should visit him every morning, and try him every moment?
acv@Job:7:19 @ How long will thou not look away from me, nor let me alone till I swallow down my spittle?
acv@Job:7:20 @ If I have sinned, what do I do to thee, O thou watcher of men? Why have thou set me as a mark for thee, so that I am a burden to myself?
acv@Job:7:21 @ And why do thou not pardon my transgression, and take away my iniquity? For now I shall lay down in the dust, and thou will seek me diligently, but I shall not be.
acv@Job:8:1 @ Then Bildad the Shuhite answered, and said,
