Job 6:8-13
World English Bible
8 “Oh that I might have my request,
that God would grant the thing that I long for,
9 even that it would please God to crush me;
that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off!
10 Let it still be my consolation,
yes, let me exult in pain that doesn’t spare,
that I have not denied the words of the Holy One.
11 What is my strength, that I should wait?
What is my end, that I should be patient?
12 Is my strength the strength of stones?
Or is my flesh of bronze?
13 Isn’t it that I have no help in me,
that wisdom is driven away from me?
Job 6:8-13
New American Standard Bible
8 “Oh, that my request might come to pass,
And that God would grant my hope!
9 Oh, that God would (A)decide to crush me,
That He would let loose His hand and cut me off!
10 But it is still my comfort,
And I rejoice in unsparing pain,
That I (B)have not [a]denied the words of the Holy One.
11 What is my strength, that I should wait?
And what is my end, that I should [b](C)endure?
12 Is my strength the strength of stones,
Or is my flesh bronze?
13 Is it that my (D)help is not within me,
And that a (E)good outcome is driven away from me?
