Job 16:1-8

16:1

Then Job
<0347>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

16:2

I have heard
<08085> (8804)

many such things
<07227>_:

miserable
<05999>

comforters
<05162> (8764)

[are] ye all. {miserable: or, troublesome}

16:3

Shall vain
<07307>

words
<01697>

have an end
<07093>_?

or what emboldeneth
<04834> (8686)

thee that thou answerest
<06030> (8799)_?

{vain...: Heb. words of wind}

16:4

I also could speak
<01696> (8762)

as ye [do]: if
<03863>

your soul
<05315>

were
<03426>

in my soul's
<05315>

stead, I could heap up
<02266> (8686)

words
<04405>

against you, and shake
<05128> (8686)

mine head
<07218>

at
<01119>

you.

16:5

[But] I would strengthen
<0553> (8762)

you with
<01119>

my mouth
<06310>_,

and the moving
<05205>

of my lips
<08193>

should asswage
<02820> (8799)

[your grief].

16:6

Though I speak
<01696> (8762)_,

my grief
<03511>

is not asswaged
<02820> (8735)_:

and [though] I forbear
<02308> (8799)_,

what am I eased
<01980> (8799)_?

{what...: Heb. what goeth from me?}

16:7

But now he hath made me weary
<03811> (8689)_:

thou hast made desolate
<08074> (8689)

all my company
<05712>_.

16:8

And thou hast filled me with wrinkles
<07059> (8799)_,

[which] is a witness
<05707>

[against me]: and my leanness
<03585>

rising up
<06965> (8799)

in me beareth witness
<06030> (8799)

to my face
<06440>_.
