< Job 6 >

1 And he answered Job and he said.
Then answered Job, and said,
2 Certainly [if] it will be weighed grief my (and destruction my *Q(K)*) in [the] balances people will raise together.
Oh that my vexation could be truly weighed, and my calamity; oh that men might lift it up in the balances at once!
3 For now more than [the] sand of [the] seas it will be heavy there-fore words my they have been rash.
For now it is already heavier than the sand of the sea: therefore are my words confused.
4 For [the] arrows of [the] Almighty [are] with me which poison their [is] drinking spirit my [the] terrors of God they are arranged against me.
For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison whereof my spirit drinketh it: the terrors of God set themselves in array against me.
5 ¿ Does it bray a wild donkey on grass or? does it low an ox on fodder its.
Doth the wild ass bray over the grass? or loweth the ox over his fodder?
6 ¿ Is it eaten tasteless [food] because not salt or? [is] there taste in [the] slime of purslane.
Is ever tasteless food eaten without salt? or is there any flavor in the white of an egg?
7 It refuses to touch [them] self my they [are] like [the] illness of food my.
My soul refuseth to touch them: they are unto me like disgusting food.
8 Who? will he give it will come petition my and hope my he will give God.
Oh that some one would grant the accomplishment of my request; and that God would grant me the fulfillment of my hope!
9 And may he be willing God and may he crush me may he loosen hand his and may he cut off me.
Yea, that it would please God that he might crush me: that he would let loose his hand, and make an end of me!
10 And may it be still - comfort my and may I jump in anguish [which] not it relents that not I have hidden [the] words of [the] holy [one].
Then would this be still my comfort; yea, I would rejoice in my pain while be would not spare: that I have not gainsaid the commands of the Holy One.—
11 What? [is] strength my that I will wait and what? [is] end my that I will prolong life my.
What is my strength, that I should wait? and what my end, that I should yet longer retain my patience?
12 [the] strength of Stones [is] strength my or? [is] flesh my bronze.
Is the strength of stones my strength? or is my flesh brazen?
13 ¿ If not [is] help my in myself and sound wisdom it has been banished from me.
Truly, am I not without my help in me? and is not wise counsel driven far away from me?
14 [belongs] to Despairing [person] from friend his loyalty and [the] fear of [the] Almighty he will forsake.
As though I were one who refuseth kindness to his friend, and forsaketh the fear of the Almighty:
15 Brothers my they have acted treacherously like a wadi like a stream-bed of wadis [which] they pass away.
My brothers are treacherous as a brook, like flowing brooks they pass along;
16 That are dark from ice over them it hides itself snow.
Which are made turbid by reason of the ice, wherein the snow hideth itself;
17 At [the] time [when] they flow they are silenced in heat its they are dried up from place their.
At the time when they feel the warmth, they vanish; when it is hot, they are quenched out of their place.
18 They twist [the] paths of way their they go up in the wasteland so they may perish.
The paths of their course wind themselves along; they go in the wilderness and are lost.
19 They look [the] caravans of Tema [the] travelers of Sheba they look eagerly for them.
The caravans of Thema look hither, the travelling companies Sheba hope for them;
20 They are disappointed for he had been confident they come to it and they were disappointed.
But they stand ashamed because they had trusted; they come thither and are made to blush.
21 For now you have become (it *Q(K)*) you have seen a terror and you were afraid.
For truly now ye are like such a one: ye see my terrible state and are afraid.
22 ¿ For have I said give for me and from wealth your give a reward for me.
Have I then ever said, Give me something, and out of your property offer a bribe in my behalf?
23 And rescue me from [the] hand of an opponent and from [the] hand of ruthless [people] you will ransom me.
And deliver me from the hand of the adversary? and redeem from the hand of tyrants?
24 Teach me and I I will keep silent and what? have I erred explain to me.
Teach me, and I will indeed remain silent; and wherein I erred give me to understand.
25 How! they are painful words of uprightness and what? does it prove completely from you.
How pleasant are straightforward words! but what doth arguing prove?
26 ¿ To reprove words do you plan and to wind [the] words of [one who] despairs.
Do ye think to reprove words, and [to regard] as wind the speeches of one that is despairing?
27 Even on a fatherless one you will make fall and you may bargain on friend your.
Yea, ye would cast any thing upon the fatherless, and ye would dig a pit against your friend.
28 And therefore be willing turn on me and on faces your if I will lie.
But now, if it please you, turn yourselves toward me, and [say] whether I would lie before your face.
29 Turn back please may not it be injustice (and turn back *Q(K)*) still righteousness my [is] in it.
Reflect again, I pray you, there will be no wrong: yea, reflect once more, my righteousness [will be found] therein.
30 ¿ [is] there On tongue my injustice or? palate my not does it discern destruction.
Is there any wrong on my tongue? or should my palate not understand [if I spoke] what is iniquitous?
