Job:6-7
updv@Job:6:1 @ Then Job answered and said,
updv@Job:6:2 @ Oh that my vexation were but weighed, And all my calamity laid in the balances!
updv@Job:6:3 @ For now it would be heavier than the sand of the seas: Therefore my words have been rash.
updv@Job:6:4 @ For the arrows of the Almighty are inside me, The poison of which my spirit drinks up: The terrors of God set themselves in array against me.
updv@Job:6:5 @ Does the wild donkey bray when he has grass? Or does the ox low over his fodder?
updv@Job:6:6 @ Can that which has no savor be eaten without salt? Or is there any taste in the white of an egg?
updv@Job:6:7 @ My soul refuses to touch [them]; They are as loathsome food to me.
updv@Job:6:8 @ Oh that I might have my request; And that God would grant [me] the thing that I long for!
updv@Job:6:9 @ Even that it would please God to crush me; That he would let loose his hand, and cut me off!
updv@Job:6:10 @ And be it still my consolation, Yes, let me exult in pain that does not spare, That I have not denied the words of the Holy One.
updv@Job:6:11 @ What is my strength, that I should wait? And what is my end, that I should be patient?
updv@Job:6:12 @ Is my strength the strength of stones? Or is my flesh of bronze?
updv@Job:6:13 @ Is it not that I have no help in me, And that wisdom is driven quite from me?
updv@Job:6:14 @ To him who is ready to faint kindness [should be shown] from his friend; Even to him who forsakes the fear of the Almighty.
updv@Job:6:15 @ My brothers have betrayed as a wadi, As a channel of wadis, they pass away;
updv@Job:6:16 @ Which are black by reason of the ice, [And] in which the snow hides itself:
updv@Job:6:17 @ What time they wax warm, they vanish; When it is hot, they are consumed out of their place.
updv@Job:6:18 @ The caravans [that travel] by the way of them turn aside; They go up into the waste, and perish.
updv@Job:6:19 @ The caravans of Tema looked, The companies of Sheba waited for them.
updv@Job:6:20 @ They were put to shame because they had hoped; They came there, and were confounded.
updv@Job:6:21 @ For now you(note:){+}(:note) are nothing; You{+} see a terror, and are afraid.
updv@Job:6:22 @ Did I say, Give to me? Or, Offer a present for me of your(note:){+}(:note) substance?
updv@Job:6:23 @ Or, Deliver me from the adversary's hand? Or, Redeem me from the hand of the oppressors?
updv@Job:6:24 @ Teach me, and I will hold my peace; And cause me to understand in what I have erred.
updv@Job:6:25 @ How forcible are words of uprightness! But your(note:){+}(:note) reproof, what does it reprove?
updv@Job:6:26 @ Do you(note:){+}(:note) think to reprove words, Seeing that the speeches of one who is desperate are as wind?
updv@Job:6:27 @ Yes, you(note:){+}(:note) would cast [lots] on the fatherless, And make merchandise of your{+} companion.
updv@Job:6:28 @ Now therefore be pleased to look at me; For surely I will not lie to your(note:){+}(:note) face.
updv@Job:6:29 @ Return, I pray you(note:){+}(:note), let there be no injustice; Yes, return again, my cause is righteous.
updv@Job:6:30 @ Is there injustice on my tongue? Can't my taste discern mischievous things?
updv@Job:7:1 @ Is there not a warfare to common man on earth? And are not his days like the days of a hired worker?
updv@Job:7:2 @ As a slave who earnestly desires the shadow, And as a hired worker that looks for his wages:
updv@Job:7:3 @ So am I made to possess months of misery, And wearisome nights are appointed to me.
updv@Job:7:4 @ When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? And I am full of tossings to and fro to the dawning of the day.
updv@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; My skin closes up, and breaks out afresh.
updv@Job:7:6 @ My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, And are spent without hope.
updv@Job:7:7 @ Oh remember that my life is a breath: My eye will no more see good.
updv@Job:7:8 @ The eye of him who sees me will look at me no more; Your eyes will be on me, but I will not be.
updv@Job:7:9 @ As the cloud is consumed and vanishes away, So he who goes down to Sheol will come up no more.
updv@Job:7:10 @ He will return no more to his house, Neither will his place know him anymore.
updv@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.
updv@Job:7:12 @ Am I a sea, or a sea-monster, That you set a watch over me?
updv@Job:7:13 @ When I say, My bed will comfort me, My couch will ease my complaint;
updv@Job:7:14 @ Then you scare me with dreams, And terrify me through visions:
updv@Job:7:15 @ So that my soul chooses strangling, And death rather than my bones.
updv@Job:7:16 @ I loathe [my life]; I would not live always: Let me alone; for my days are vanity.
updv@Job:7:17 @ What is common man, that you should magnify him, And that you should set your mind on him,
updv@Job:7:18 @ And that you should visit him every morning, And try him every moment?
updv@Job:7:19 @ How long will you not look away from me, Nor let me alone until I swallow down my spittle?
updv@Job:7:20 @ If I have sinned, what do I do to you, O you watcher of man? Why have you set me as a mark for you, So that I am a burden to you?
updv@Job:7:21 @ And why don't you pardon my transgression, and take away my iniquity? For now I will lie down in the dust; And you will seek me diligently, but I will not be.
updv@Job:8:1 @ Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,
