{Job 6:1} But Job answered and said, ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:2} O that my grief were throughly weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances together! ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:3} For now it would be heavier than the sand of the sea: therefore my words are swallowed up. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:4} For the arrows of the Almighty [are] within me, the poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:5} Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? or loweth the ox over his fodder? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:6} Can that which is unsavoury be eaten without salt? or is there [any] taste in the white of an egg? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:7} The things [that] my soul refused to touch [are] as my sorrowful meat. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:8} Oh that I might have my request; and that God would grant [me] the thing that I long for! ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:9} Even that it would please God to destroy me; that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off! ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:10} Then should I yet have comfort; yea, I would harden myself in sorrow: let him not spare; for I have not concealed the words of the Holy One. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:11} What [is] my strength, that I should hope? and what [is] mine end, that I should prolong my life? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:12} [Is] my strength the strength of stones? or [is] my flesh of brass? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:13} [Is] not my help in me? and is wisdom driven quite from me? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:14} To him that is afflicted pity [should be shewed] from his friend; but he forsaketh the fear of the Almighty. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:15} My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook, [and] as the stream of brooks they pass away; ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:16} Which are blackish by reason of the ice, [and] wherein the snow is hid: ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:17} What time they wax warm, they vanish: when it is hot, they are consumed out of their place. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:18} The paths of their way are turned aside; they go to nothing, and perish. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:19} The troops of Tema looked, the companies of Sheba waited for them. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:20} They were confounded because they had hoped; they came thither, and were ashamed. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:21} For now ye are no thing; ye see [my] casting down, and are afraid. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:22} Did I say, Bring unto me? or, Give a reward for me of your substance? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:23} Or, Deliver me from the enemy’s hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:24} Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:25} How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:26} Do ye imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, [which are] as wind? ⠀⠀⠀⠀

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

{Job 6:28} Now therefore be content, look upon me; for [it is] evident unto you if I lie. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:29} Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity; yea, return again, my righteousness [is] in it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

{Job 6:30} Is there iniquity in my tongue? cannot my taste discern perverse things?
