Job 6 (NKJV)

Job 6 NO HIGHLIGHTS HIGHLIGHTS
6:1 Then Job answered and said:
6:2 ''Oh, that my grief were fully weighed, And my calamity laid with it on the scales!
6:3 For then it would be heavier than the sand of the sea - Therefore my words have been rash.
6:4 For the arrows of the Almighty are within me; My spirit drinks in their poison; The terrors of God are arrayed against me.
6:5 Does the wild donkey bray when it has grass, Or does the ox low over its fodder?
6:6 Can flavorless food be eaten without salt? Or is there any taste in the white of an egg?
6:7 My soul refuses to touch them; They are as loathsome food to me.
6:8 ''Oh, that I might have my request, That God would grant me the thing that I long for!
6:9 That it would please God to crush me, That He would loose His hand and cut me off!
6:10 Then I would still have comfort; Though in anguish, I would exult, He will not spare; For I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.
6:11 ''What strength do I have, that I should hope? And what is my end, that I should prolong my life?
6:12 Is my strength the strength of stones? Or is my flesh bronze?
6:13 Is my help not within me? And is success driven from me?
6:14 ''To him who is afflicted, kindness should be shown by his friend, Even though he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.
6:15 My brothers have dealt deceitfully like a brook, Like the streams of the brooks that pass away,
6:16 Which are dark because of the ice, And into which the snow vanishes.
6:17 When it is warm, they cease to flow; When it is hot, they vanish from their place.
6:18 The paths of their way turn aside, They go nowhere and perish.
6:19 The caravans of Tema look, The travelers of Sheba hope for them.
6:20 They are disappointed because they were confident; They come there and are confused.
6:21 For now you are nothing, You see terror and are afraid.
6:22 Did I ever say, 'Bring something to me'? Or, 'Offer a bribe for me from your wealth'?
6:23 Or, 'Deliver me from the enemy's hand'? Or, 'Redeem me from the hand of oppressors'?
6:24 ''Teach me, and I will hold my tongue; Cause me to understand wherein I have erred.
6:25 How forceful are right words! But what does your arguing prove?
6:26 Do you intend to rebuke my words, And the speeches of a desperate one, which are as wind?
6:27 Yes, you overwhelm the fatherless, And you undermine your friend.
6:28 Now therefore, be pleased to look at me; For I would never lie to your face.
6:29 Yield now, let there be no injustice! Yes, concede, my righteousness still stands!
6:30 Is there injustice on my tongue? Cannot my taste discern the unsavory?
