Job 6 RV1885 — Job 6

1 Then Job answered and said, RV1885 — Job 6:1

2 Oh that my vexation were but weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances together! RV1885 — Job 6:2

3 For now it would be heavier than the sand of the seas: therefore have my words been rash. RV1885 — 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. RV1885 — Job 6:4

5 Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? or loweth the ox over his fodder? RV1885 — Job 6:5

6 Can that which hath no savour be eaten without salt? or is there any taste in the white of an egg? RV1885 — Job 6:6

7 My soul refuseth to touch them; they are as loathsome meat to me. RV1885 — Job 6:7

8 Oh that I might have my request; and that God would grant me the thing that I long for. RV1885 — Job 6:8

9 Even that it would please God to crush me; that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off! RV1885 — Job 6:9

10 Then should I yet have comfort; yea, I would exult in pain that spareth not: for I have not denied the words of the Holy One. RV1885 — Job 6:10

11 What is my strength, that I should wait? and what is mine end, at I should be patient? RV1885 — Job 6:11

12 Is my strength the strength of stones? or is my flesh of brass? RV1885 — Job 6:12

13 Is it not that I have no help in me, and that effectual working is driven quite from me? RV1885 — Job 6:13

14 To him that is ready to faint kindness should be shewed from his friend; even to him that forsaketh the fear of the Almighty. RV1885 — Job 6:14

15 My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook, as the channel of brooks that pass away; RV1885 — Job 6:15

16 Which are black by reason of the ice, and wherein the snow hideth itself: RV1885 — Job 6:16

17 What time they wax warm, they vanish: when it is hot, they are consumed out of their place. RV1885 — Job 6:17

18 The caravans that travel by the way of them turn aside; they go up into the waste, and perish. RV1885 — Job 6:18

19 The caravans of Tema looked, the companies of Sheba waited for them. RV1885 — Job 6:19

20 They were ashamed because they had hoped; they came thither, and were confounded. RV1885 — Job 6:20

21 For now ye are nothing; ye see a terror, and are afraid. RV1885 — Job 6:21

22 Did I say, Give unto me? or, offer a present for me of your substance? RV1885 — Job 6:22

23 Or, Deliver me from the adversary's hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the oppressors? RV1885 — Job 6:23

24 Teach me, and I will hold my peace: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred. RV1885 — Job 6:24

25 How forcible are words of uprightness! but what doth your arguing reprove? RV1885 — Job 6:25

26 Do ye imagine to reprove words? seeing that the speeches of one that is desperate are as wind. RV1885 — Job 6:26

27 Yea, ye would cast lots upon the fatherless, and make merchandise of your friend. RV1885 — Job 6:27

28 Now therefore be pleased to look upon me; for surely I shall not lie to your face. RV1885 — Job 6:28

29 Return, I pray you, let there be no injustice; yea, return again, my cause is righteous. RV1885 — Job 6:29

30 Is there injustice on my tongue? cannot my taste discern mischievous things? RV1885 — Job 6:30
