But JobH347 answeredH6030 and saidH559,
Oh thatH3863 my griefH3708 were throughlyH8254 weighedH8254, and my calamityH1942+H1962 laidH5375 in the balancesH3976 togetherH3162! {laid: Heb. lifted up}
For now it would be heavierH3513 than the sandH2344 of the seaH3220: therefore my wordsH1697 are swallowed upH3886. {my words…: that is, I want words to express my grief}
For the arrowsH2671 of the AlmightyH7706 are withinH5978 me, the poisonH2534 whereof drinketh upH8354 my spiritH7307: the terrorsH1161 of GodH433 do set themselves in arrayH6186 against me.
Doth the wild assH6501 brayH5101 when he hath grassH1877? or lowethH1600 the oxH7794 over his fodderH1098? {when he…: Heb. at grass?}
Can that which is unsavouryH8602 be eatenH398 without saltH4417? or is thereH3426 any tasteH2940 in the whiteH7388 of an eggH2495?
The things that my soulH5315 refusedH3985 to touchH5060 are as my sorrowfulH1741 meatH3899.
Oh that I might haveH935 my requestH7596; and that GodH433 would grantH5414 me the thing that I long forH8615! {the thing…: Heb. my expectation}
Even that it would pleaseH2974 GodH433 to destroyH1792 me; that he would let looseH5425 his handH3027, and cut me offH1214!
Then should I yet have comfortH5165; yea, I would hardenH5539 myself in sorrowH2427: let him not spareH2550; for I have not concealedH3582 the wordsH561 of the Holy OneH6918.
What is my strengthH3581, that I should hopeH3176? and what is mine endH7093, that I should prolongH748 my lifeH5315?
Is my strengthH3581 the strengthH3581 of stonesH68? or is my fleshH1320 of brassH5153? {of brass: Heb. brasen?}
Is not my helpH5833 in me? and is wisdomH8454 driven quiteH5080 from me?
To him that is afflictedH4523 pityH2617 should be shewed from his friendH7453; but he forsakethH5800 the fearH3374 of the AlmightyH7706. {is afflicted: Heb. melteth}
My brethrenH251 have dealt deceitfullyH898 as a brookH5158, and as the streamH650 of brooksH5158 they pass awayH5674;
Which are blackishH6937 by reason of the iceH7140, and wherein the snowH7950 is hidH5956:
What timeH6256 they wax warmH2215, they vanishH6789: when it is hotH2527, they are consumed outH1846 of their placeH4725. {vanish: Heb. are cut off} {when…: Heb. in the heat thereof} {consumed: Heb. extinguished}
The pathsH734 of their wayH1870 are turned asideH3943; they goH5927 to nothingH8414, and perishH6.
The troopsH734 of TemaH8485 lookedH5027, the companiesH1979 of ShebaH7614 waitedH6960 for them.
They were confoundedH954 because they had hopedH982; they cameH935 thither, and were ashamedH2659.
For now ye are nothing; ye seeH7200 my casting downH2866, and are afraidH3372. {ye are…: or, ye are like to them: Heb. to it} {nothing: Heb. not}
Did I sayH559, BringH3051 unto me? or, Give a rewardH7809 for me of your substanceH3581?
Or, DeliverH4422 me from the enemy'sH6862 handH3027? or, RedeemH6299 me from the handH3027 of the mightyH6184?
TeachH3384 me, and I will hold my tongueH2790: and cause me to understandH995 wherein I have erredH7686.
How forcibleH4834 are rightH3476 wordsH561! but what doth your arguingH3198 reproveH3198?
Do ye imagineH2803 to reproveH3198 wordsH4405, and the speechesH561 of one that is desperateH2976, which are as windH7307?
Yea, ye overwhelmH5307 the fatherlessH3490, and ye digH3738 a pit for your friendH7453. {ye overwhelm: Heb. ye cause to fall upon}
Now therefore be contentH2974, lookH6437 upon me; for it is evidentH6440 unto you if I lieH3576. {evident…: Heb. before your face}
ReturnH7725, I pray you, let it not be iniquityH5766; yea, return againH7725, my righteousnessH6664 is in it. {in it: that is, in this matter}
Is thereH3426 iniquityH5766 in my tongueH3956? cannot my tasteH2441 discernH995 perverse thingsH1942? {my taste: Heb. my palate}

His archersH7228 compass me round aboutH5437, he cleavethH6398 my reinsH3629 asunderH6398, and doth not spareH2550; he poureth outH8210 my gallH4845 upon the groundH776.

TerrorsH1091 are turnedH2015 upon me: they pursueH7291 my soulH5082 as the windH7307: and my welfareH3444 passeth awayH5674 as a cloudH5645. {my soul: Heb. my principal one}
I will make mine arrowsH2671 drunkH7937 with bloodH1818, and my swordH2719 shall devourH398 fleshH1320; and that with the bloodH1818 of the slainH2491 and of the captivesH7633, from the beginningH7218 of revengesH6546 upon the enemyH341.
The spiritH7307 of a manH376 will sustainH3557 his infirmityH4245; but a woundedH5218 spiritH7307 who can bearH5375?
For destructionH343 from GodH410 was a terrorH6343 to me, and by reason of his highnessH7613 I couldH3201 not endure.
