< Job 6 >

1 And he answered Job and he said.
Then Job answered and said:
2 Certainly [if] it will be weighed grief my (and destruction my *Q(K)*) in [the] balances people will raise together.
O that my grief were weighed thoroughly! That my calamities were put together in the balance!
3 For now more than [the] sand of [the] seas it will be heavy there-fore words my they have been rash.
Surely they would be heavier than the sand of the sea; On this account were my words rash.
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 have pierced me; Their poison drinketh up my spirit; 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 in the midst of 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.
Can that which is unsavory be eaten without salt? Is there any taste in the white of an egg?
7 It refuses to touch [them] self my they [are] like [the] illness of food my.
That which my soul abhorreth to touch Hath become my loathsome food.
8 Who? will he give it will come petition my and hope my he will give God.
O that I might have my request, And that God would grant me that which I long for!
9 And may he be willing God and may he crush me may he loosen hand his and may he cut off me.
That it would please God to destroy 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].
Yet it should still be my consolation, Yea, in unsparing anguish I would exult, That I have not denied 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 hope? And what mine end, that I should be patient?
12 [the] strength of Stones [is] strength my or? [is] flesh my bronze.
Is my strength the strength of stones? Or is my flesh brass?
13 ¿ If not [is] help my in myself and sound wisdom it has been banished from me.
Alas, there is no help within me! Deliverance is driven from me!
14 [belongs] to Despairing [person] from friend his loyalty and [the] fear of [the] Almighty he will forsake.
To the afflicted, kindness should be shown by a friend; Else he casteth off 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.
But my brethren are faithless like a brook; Like streams of the valley that pass away;
16 That are dark from ice over them it hides itself snow.
Which are turbid by reason of the ice, And the snow, which hideth itself in them.
17 At [the] time [when] they flow they are silenced in heat its they are dried up from place their.
As soon as they flow forth, they vanish; When the heat cometh, they are dried up from their place.
18 They twist [the] paths of way their they go up in the wasteland so they may perish.
The caravans turn aside to them on their way; They go up into the desert, and perish.
19 They look [the] caravans of Tema [the] travelers of Sheba they look eagerly for them.
The caravans of Tema look for them; The companies of Sheba expect to see them;
20 They are disappointed for he had been confident they come to it and they were disappointed.
They are ashamed that they have relied on them; They come to their place, and are confounded.
21 For now you have become (it *Q(K)*) you have seen a terror and you were afraid.
So ye also are nothing; Ye see a terror, and shrink back.
22 ¿ For have I said give for me and from wealth your give a reward for me.
Have I said, Bring me gifts? Or, Give a present for me out of your substance?
23 And rescue me from [the] hand of an opponent and from [the] hand of ruthless [people] you will ransom me.
Or, Deliver me from the enemy's hand? Or, Rescue me from the hand of the violent?
24 Teach me and I I will keep silent and what? have I erred explain to me.
Convince me, and I will hold my peace; Cause me to understand wherein I have erred.
25 How! they are painful words of uprightness and what? does it prove completely from you.
How powerful are the words of truth! But what do your reproaches prove?
26 ¿ To reprove words do you plan and to wind [the] words of [one who] despairs.
Do ye mean to censure words? The words of a man in despair are but wind.
27 Even on a fatherless one you will make fall and you may bargain on friend your.
Truly ye spread a net for the fatherless; Ye dig a pit for your friend.
28 And therefore be willing turn on me and on faces your if I will lie.
Look now upon me, I pray you; For to your very face can I speak falsehood?
29 Turn back please may not it be injustice (and turn back *Q(K)*) still righteousness my [is] in it.
Return, I pray, and let there be no unfairness; Yea, return; —still is my cause righteous.
30 ¿ [is] there On tongue my injustice or? palate my not does it discern destruction.
Is there iniquity on my tongue? Cannot my taste discern what is sinful?
