Job 16:3-8 English Standard Version (ESV)

3. Shall windy words have an end?Or what provokes you that you answer?

4. I also could speak as you do,if you were in my place;I could join words together against youand shake my head at you.

5. I could strengthen you with my mouth,and the solace of my lips would assuage your pain.

6. “If I speak, my pain is not assuaged,and if I forbear, how much of it leaves me?

7. Surely now God has worn me out; he has made desolate all my company.

8. And he has shriveled me up,which is a witness against me,and my leanness has risen up against me;it testifies to my face.
