King James Version with Apocrypha
"Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and ye dig a pit for your friend."
— Job 6:27, King James Version with Apocrypha
“Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and ye dig a pit for your friend.”
“Yea, ye would castlotsupon the fatherless, And make merchandise of your friend. ”
“Yes, you would even cast lots for the fatherless, and make merchandise of your friend.”
“Yes, you would gamble for the fatherless, and auction off your friend.”
“You rush in upon the fatherless, and you endeavour to overthrow your friend.”
“Truly, you are such as would give up the child of a dead man to his creditors, and would make a profit out of your friend.”
Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred.
How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove?
Do ye imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, which are as wind?
Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and ye dig a pit for your friend.
Now therefore be content, look upon me; for it is evident unto you if I lie.
Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity; yea, return again, my righteousness is in it.
Is there iniquity in my tongue? cannot my taste discern perverse things?
