Red-Letter King James Bible 1769 Edition (KJV)

Job 6

1 Job sheweth that his complaints are not causeless. 8 He wisheth for death, wherein he is assured of comfort. 14 He reproveth his friends for their unkindness.

 6:1 ¶ But Job 347 answered 6030 z8799 and said, 559 z8799

 6:2 Oh that 3863 my grief 3708 were throughly y8254 z8800 weighed, 8254 z8735 and my calamity 1942 z8675 y1962 laid 5375 z8799 in the balances 3976 together! 3162

 6:3 For x3588 now x6258 it would be heavier 3513 z8799 than the sand 2344 x4480 of the sea: 3220 therefore x5921 x3651 my words 1697 are swallowed up. 3886 z8804

 6:4 For x3588 the arrows 2671 of the Almighty 7706 [are] within 5978 me, the poison 2534 whereof x834 drinketh up 8354 z8802 my spirit: 7307 the terrors 1161 of God 433 do set themselves in array y6186 z8799 against x6186 me.

 6:5 Doth the wild ass 6501 bray 5101 z8799 when he hath grass? 1877 or x518 loweth 1600 z8799 the ox 7794 over x5921 his fodder? 1098

 6:6 Can that which is unsavoury 8602 be eaten 398 z8735 without x4480 x1097 salt? 4417 or x518 is there 3426 [any] taste 2940 in the white 7388 of an egg? 2495

 6:7 The things x1992 [that] my soul 5315 refused 3985 z8765 to touch 5060 z8800 [are] as my sorrowful 1741 meat. 3899

 6:8 Oh that x4310 I might x5414 have 935 z8799 my request; 7596 and that God 433 would grant 5414 z8799 [me] the thing that I long for! 8615

 6:9 Even that it would please 2974 z8686 God 433 to destroy 1792 z8762 me; that he would let loose 5425 z8686 his hand, 3027 and cut me off! 1214 z8762

 6:10 Then should I yet x5750 have x1961 comfort; 5165 yea, I would harden 5539 z8762 myself in sorrow: 2427 let him not x3808 spare; 2550 z8799 for x3588 I have not x3808 concealed 3582 z8765 the words 561 of the Holy One. 6918

 6:11 What x4100 [is] my strength, 3581 that x3588 I should hope? 3176 z8762 and what x4100 [is] mine end, 7093 that x3588 I should prolong 748 z8686 my life? 5315

 6:12 [Is] my strength 3581 the strength 3581 of stones? 68 or [is] my flesh 1320 of brass? 5153

 6:13 [Is] not x369 my help 5833 in me? and is wisdom 8454 driven x5080 quite y5080 z8738 from x4480 me?

 6:14 To him that is afflicted 4523 pity 2617 [should be shewed] from his friend; 7453 x4480 but he forsaketh 5800 z8799 the fear 3374 of the Almighty. 7706

 6:15 My brethren 251 have dealt deceitfully 898 z8804 as x3644 a brook, 5158 [and] as the stream 650 of brooks 5158 they pass away; 5674 z8799

 6:16 Which are blackish 6937 z8802 by reason of x4480 the ice, 7140 [and] wherein x5921 the snow 7950 is hid: 5956 z8691

 6:17 What time 6256 they wax warm, 2215 z8792 they vanish: 6789 z8738 when it is hot, y2527 x2522 they are consumed x1846 out y1846 z8738 of their place. 4725 x4480

 6:18 The paths 734 of their way 1870 are turned aside; 3943 z8735 they go 5927 z8799 to nothing, 8414 and perish. 6 z8799

 6:19 The troops 734 of Tema 8485 looked, 5027 z8689 the companies 1979 of Sheba 7614 waited 6960 z8765 for x3926 them.

 6:20 They were confounded 954 z8804 because x3588 they had hoped; 982 z8804 they came 935 z8804 thither, x5704 and were ashamed. 2659 z8799

 6:21 For x3588 now x6258 ye are x1961 nothing; x3808 ye see 7200 z8799 [my] casting down, 2866 and are afraid. 3372 z8799

 6:22 Did x3588 I say, 559 z8804 Bring 3051 z8798 unto me? or, Give a reward 7809 z8798 for x1157 me of your substance? 3581 x4480

 6:23 Or, Deliver 4422 z8761 me from the enemy's y6862 hand? 3027 x4480 x6862 or, Redeem 6299 z8799 me from the hand 3027 x4480 of the mighty? 6184

 6:24 Teach 3384 z8685 me, and I x589 will hold my tongue: 2790 z8686 and cause me to understand 995 z8685 wherein x4100 I have erred. 7686 z8804

 6:25 How x4100 forcible 4834 z8738 are right 3476 words! 561 but what x4100 doth your arguing 3198 z8687 reprove? 3198 z8686 x4480

 6:26 Do ye imagine 2803 z8799 to reprove 3198 z8687 words, 4405 and the speeches 561 of one that is desperate, 2976 z8737 [which are] as wind? 7307

 6:27 Yea, x637 ye overwhelm 5307 z8686 x5921 the fatherless, 3490 and ye dig 3738 z8799 [a pit] for x5921 your friend. 7453

 6:28 Now x6258 therefore be content, 2974 z8685 look 6437 z8798 upon me; for [it is] evident y6440 unto x5921 x6440 you if x518 I lie. 3576 z8762

 6:29 Return, 7725 z8798 I pray you, x4994 let it not x408 be x1961 iniquity; 5766 yea, return x7725 again, y7725 z8798 x5750 my righteousness 6664 [is] in it.

 6:30 Is there 3426 iniquity 5766 in my tongue? 3956 cannot x3808 my taste 2441 discern 995 z8799 perverse things? 1942
