Job 6:14-30

14For him that is fainting kindness [is meet] from his friend; or he forsaketh the fear of the Almighty. 15My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a stream, as the channel of streams which pass away, 16Which are turbid by reason of the ice, in which the snow hideth itself: 17At the time they diminish, they are dried up; when heat affecteth them, they vanish from their place: 18They wind about in the paths of their course, they go off into the waste and perish. 19The caravans of Tema looked, the companies of Sheba counted on them: 20They are ashamed at their hope; they come thither, and are confounded. 21So now ye are nothing; ye see a terrible object and are afraid. 22Did I say, Bring unto me, and make me a present from your substance? 23Or, rescue me from the hand of the oppressor, and redeem me from the hand of the violent? 24Teach me, and I will hold my tongue; and cause me to understand wherein I have erred. 25How forcible are right words! but what doth your upbraiding reprove? 26Do ye imagine to reprove words? The speeches of one that is desperate are indeed for the wind. 27Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and dig [a pit] for your friend. 28Now therefore if ye will, look upon me; and it shall be to your face if I lie. 29Return, I pray you, let there be no wrong; yea, return again, my righteousness shall be in it. 30Is there wrong in my tongue? cannot my taste discern mischievous things?
