Job 6:1-7
1Then Job 1answered,2“2Oh that my grief were actually weighed And laid in the balances together with my calamity!3For then it would be 3heavier than the sand of the seas; Therefore my words have been rash.4For the 4arrows of the Almighty are within me, 5Their 6poison my spirit drinks; The 7terrors of God are arrayed against me.5Does the 8wild donkey bray over his grass, Or does the ox low over his fodder?6Can something tasteless be eaten without salt, Or is there any taste in the 9white of an egg?7My soul 10refuses to touch them; They are like loathsome food to me.
