"Abandonment by God and Man“But if I speak, my pain is not relieved, and if I refrain from speaking– how much of it goes away?"
— Job 16:6, NET Bible
“Though I speak, my grief is not asswaged: and though I forbear, what am I eased?”
“ Though I speak, my grief is not assuaged; And though I forbear, what am I eased? ”
“"Though I speak, my grief is not subsided. Though I forbear, what am I eased?”
“I would strengthen you with my mouth, and would move my lips, as sparing you.”
“If I say what is in my mind, my pain becomes no less: and if I keep quiet, how much of it goes from me?”
“Though I speak, my grief is not asswaged: and though I forbear, what am I eased?”
Will there be an end to your windy words? Or what provokes you that you answer?
I also could speak like you, if you were in my place; I could pile up words against you and I could shake my head at you.
But I would strengthen you with my words; comfort from my lips would bring you relief.
Abandonment by God and Man“But if I speak, my pain is not relieved, and if I refrain from speaking– how much of it goes away?
Surely now he has worn me out, you have devastated my entire household.
You have seized me, and it has become a witness; my leanness has risen up against me and testifies against me.
His anger has torn me and persecuted me; he has gnashed at me with his teeth; my adversary locks his eyes on me.
