Job 6:1-7

11Then Job replied:

2‘I am so upset that nobody could measure it! My problems are too many to weigh!

3They are heavier than all the sand on the shore of the sea. That is why I did not think carefully before I spoke.

4Almighty God has shot his arrows into me. Their poison is now deep inside me. God has sent me many troubles that make me afraid.

5A wild donkey does not complain when it has grass to eat. An ox is quiet when it has its food.

6You cannot enjoy food that has no salt in it. The white part of an egg is not nice to eat on its own.

7I cannot eat that kind of food. It makes me ill.

Notes

  1. 1. Job 6:1 Job tells Eliphaz that he wants to know the reason for his trouble. His friends have not helped him to understand why God has punished him like this. ↩
