Job 6:24-27
Lexham English Bible
24 Teach me, and I myself[a] will be silent;
and make me understand how I have gone astray.
25 How painful are upright words![b]
But[c] what does your reproof[d] reprove?
26 Do you intend to reprove my words[e]
and consider the words of a desperate man as wind?
27 Even over the orphan you would cast the lot,
and you would bargain over your friend.
Job 6:24-27
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)
