King James Version with Apocrypha
"Oh that my grief were throughly weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances together!"
— Job 6:2, King James Version with Apocrypha
“Oh that my grief were throughly weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances together!”
“ Oh that my vexation were but weighed, And all my calamity laid in the balances! ”
“"Oh that my anguish were weighed, and all my calamity laid in the balances!”
““Oh, if only my grief could be weighed, and my misfortune laid on the scales too!”
“O that my sins, whereby I have deserved wrath, and the calamity that I suffer, were weighed in a balance.”
“If only my passion might be measured, and put into the scales against my trouble!”
But Job answered and said,
Oh that my grief were throughly weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances together!
For now it would be heavier than the sand of the sea: therefore my words are swallowed up.
For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.
Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? or loweth the ox over his fodder?
