Job Replies: My Complaint Is Just
|
||||
|
||||
# Chapter 6
|
||||
1. Then Job answered and said:
|
||||
|
||||
2. "Oh that my vexation were weighed,
|
||||
and all my calamity laid in the balances!
|
||||
|
||||
3. For then it would be heavier than the sand of the sea;
|
||||
therefore my words have been rash.
|
||||
|
||||
4. For the arrows of the Almighty are in me;
|
||||
my spirit drinks their poison;
|
||||
the terrors of God are arrayed against me.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Does the wild donkey bray when he has grass,
|
||||
or the ox low over his fodder?
|
||||
|
||||
6. Can that which is tasteless be eaten without salt,
|
||||
or is there any taste in the juice of the mallow?
|
||||
|
||||
7. My appetite refuses to touch them;
|
||||
they are as food that is loathsome to me.
|
||||
|
||||
8. "Oh that I might have my request,
|
||||
and that God would fulfill my hope,
|
||||
|
||||
9. that it would please God to crush me,
|
||||
that he would let loose his hand and cut me off!
|
||||
|
||||
10. This would be my comfort;
|
||||
I would even exult in pain unsparing,
|
||||
for I have not denied the words of the Holy One.
|
||||
|
||||
11. What is my strength, that I should wait?
|
||||
And what is my end, that I should be patient?
|
||||
|
||||
12. Is my strength the strength of stones, or is my flesh bronze?
|
||||
|
||||
13. Have I any help in me,
|
||||
when resource is driven from me?
|
||||
|
||||
14. "He who withholds kindness from a friend
|
||||
forsakes the fear of the Almighty.
|
||||
|
||||
15. My brothers are treacherous as a torrent-bed,
|
||||
as torrential streams that pass away,
|
||||
|
||||
16. which are dark with ice,
|
||||
and where the snow hides itself.
|
||||
|
||||
17. When they melt, they disappear;
|
||||
when it is hot, they vanish from their place.
|
||||
|
||||
18. The caravans turn aside from their course;
|
||||
they go up into the waste and perish.
|
||||
|
||||
19. The caravans of Tema look,
|
||||
the travelers of Sheba hope.
|
||||
|
||||
20. They are ashamed because they were confident;
|
||||
they come there and are disappointed.
|
||||
|
||||
21. For you have now become nothing;
|
||||
you see my calamity and are afraid.
|
||||
|
||||
22. Have I said, 'Make me a gift'?
|
||||
Or, 'From your wealth offer a bribe for me'?
|
||||
|
||||
23. Or, 'Deliver me from the adversary's hand'?
|
||||
Or, 'Redeem me from the hand of the ruthless'?
|
||||
|
||||
24. "Teach me, and I will be silent;
|
||||
make me understand how I have gone astray.
|
||||
|
||||
25. How forceful are upright words!
|
||||
But what does reproof from you reprove?
|
||||
|
||||
26. Do you think that you can reprove words,
|
||||
when the speech of a despairing man is wind?
|
||||
|
||||
27. You would even cast lots over the fatherless,
|
||||
and bargain over your friend.
|
||||
|
||||
28. "But now, be pleased to look at me,
|
||||
for I will not lie to your face.
|
||||
|
||||
29. Please turn; let no injustice be done.
|
||||
Turn now; my vindication is at stake.
|
||||
|
||||
30. Is there any injustice on my tongue?
|
||||
Cannot my palate discern the cause of calamity?
