Job Defends Himself

If You Were in My Shoes

16 1-5 Then Job defended himself:

“I’ve had all I can take of your talk.
    What a bunch of miserable comforters!
Is there no end to your windbag speeches?
    What’s your problem that you go on and on like this?
If you were in my shoes,

    and really let you have it.
But I’d never do that. I’d console and comfort,
    make things better, not worse!
