Job 6:24-27
New International Version
Job 6:24-27
New International Version
24 “Teach me, and I will be quiet;(A)
show me where I have been wrong.(B)
25 How painful are honest words!(C)
But what do your arguments prove?
26 Do you mean to correct what I say,
and treat my desperate words as wind?(D)
27 You would even cast lots(E) for the fatherless(F)
and barter away your friend.
Job 6:24-27

Job 6:24-27
Holman Christian Standard Bible
24 Teach me, and I will be silent.
Help me understand what I did wrong.
25 How painful honest words can be!
But what does your rebuke prove?
26 Do you think that you can disprove my words
or that a despairing man’s words are mere wind?(A)
27 No doubt you would cast lots for a fatherless child
and negotiate a price to sell your friend.(B)
Job 6:24-27
King James Version
Job 6:24-27
King James Version
24 Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred.
25 How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove?
26 Do ye imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, which are as wind?
27 Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and ye dig a pit for your friend.
