Job 16:1-6 Modern English Version (MEV)

1. Then Job answered:

2. “I have heard many such things;miserable comforters are you all!

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

4. I also could speak as you do,if your soul were in my place.I could heap up words against youand shake my head at you;

5. but I would strengthen you with my mouth,and the moving of my lips would relieve your grief.

6. “Though I speak, my grief is not relieved;and though I stop, how am I eased?
