NET Bible
"What is my strength, that I should wait? and what is my end, that I should prolong my life?"
— Job 6:11, NET Bible
“What is my strength, that I should hope? and what is mine end, that I should prolong my life?”
“What is my strength, that I should wait? And what is mine end, that I should be patient? ”
“What is my strength, that I should wait? What is my end, that I should be patient?”
“For what is my strength, that I can hold out? or what is my end, that I should keep patience?”
“Have I strength to go on waiting, or have I any end to be looking forward to?”
“What is my strength, that I should hope? and what is mine end, that I should prolong my life?”
A Cry for Death“Oh that my request would be realized, and that God would grant me what I long for!
And that God would be willing to crush me, that he would let loose his hand and kill me.
Then I would yet have my comfort, then I would rejoice, in spite of pitiless pain, for I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.
What is my strength, that I should wait? and what is my end, that I should prolong my life?
Is my strength like that of stones? or is my flesh made of bronze?
Is not my power to help myself nothing, and has not every resource been driven from me?
Disappointing Friends“To the one in despair, kindness should come from his friend even if he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.
