1 Then Job answered and said, ASV — Job 6:1
2 Oh that my vexation were but weighed, And all my calamity laid in the balances! ASV — Job 6:2
3 For now it would be heavier than the sand of the seas: Therefore have my words been rash. ASV — Job 6:3
4 For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, The poison whereof my spirit drinketh up: The terrors of God do set themselves in array against me. ASV — Job 6:4
5 Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? Or loweth the ox over his fodder? ASV — Job 6:5
6 Can that which hath no savor be eaten without salt? Or is there any taste in the white of an egg? ASV — Job 6:6
7 My soul refuseth to touch [them]; They are as loathsome food to me. ASV — Job 6:7
8 Oh that I might have my request; And that God would grant [me] the thing that I long for! ASV — Job 6:8
9 Even that it would please God to crush me; That he would let loose his hand, and cut me off! ASV — Job 6:9
10 And be it still my consolation, Yea, let me exult in pain that spareth not, That I have not denied the words of the Holy One. ASV — Job 6:10
11 What is my strength, that I should wait? And what is mine end, that I should be patient? ASV — Job 6:11
12 Is my strength the strength of stones? Or is my flesh of brass? ASV — Job 6:12
13 Is it not that I have no help in me, And that wisdom is driven quite from me? ASV — Job 6:13
14 To him that is ready to faint kindness [should be showed] from his friend; Even to him that forsaketh the fear of the Almighty. ASV — Job 6:14
15 My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook, As the channel of brooks that pass away; ASV — Job 6:15
16 Which are black by reason of the ice, [And] wherein the snow hideth itself: ASV — Job 6:16
17 What time they wax warm, they vanish; When it is hot, they are consumed out of their place. ASV — Job 6:17
18 The caravans [that travel] by the way of them turn aside; They go up into the waste, and perish. ASV — Job 6:18
19 The caravans of Tema looked, The companies of Sheba waited for them. ASV — Job 6:19
20 They were put to shame because they had hoped; They came thither, and were confounded. ASV — Job 6:20
21 For now ye are nothing; Ye see a terror, and are afraid. ASV — Job 6:21
22 Did I say, Give unto me? Or, Offer a present for me of your substance? ASV — Job 6:22
23 Or, Deliver me from the adversary`s hand? Or, Redeem me from the hand of the oppressors? ASV — Job 6:23
24 Teach me, and I will hold my peace; And cause me to understand wherein I have erred. ASV — Job 6:24
25 How forcible are words of uprightness! But your reproof, what doth it reprove? ASV — Job 6:25
26 Do ye think to reprove words, Seeing that the speeches of one that is desperate are as wind? ASV — Job 6:26
27 Yea, ye would cast [lots] upon the fatherless, And make merchandise of your friend. ASV — Job 6:27
28 Now therefore be pleased to look upon me; For surely I shall not lie to your face. ASV — Job 6:28
29 Return, I pray you, let there be no injustice; Yea, return again, my cause is righteous. ASV — Job 6:29
30 Is there injustice on my tongue? Cannot my taste discern mischievous things? ASV — Job 6:30
