Job 6:1-Job: My Complaint Is Just / Job’s Friends Are No Help
Job 6:1-7
1 Then Job answered and said:
2
“Oh, that my grief were fully weighed,
And my calamity laid with it on the scales!
3
For then it would be heavier than the sand of the sea—
Therefore my words have been rash.
4
For the arrows of the Almighty are within me;
My spirit drinks in their poison;
The terrors of God are arrayed against me.
5
Does the wild donkey bray when it has grass,
Or does the ox low over its fodder?
6
Can flavorless food be eaten without salt?
Or is there any taste in the white of an egg?
7
My soul refuses to touch them;
They are as loathsome food to me.
Job 6:6-7
6
Can flavorless food be eaten without salt?
Or is there any taste in the white of an egg?
7
My soul refuses to touch them;
They are as loathsome food to me.
Job 6:24-25
24
“Teach me, and I will hold my tongue;
Cause me to understand wherein I have erred.
25
How forceful are right words!
But what does your arguing prove?
