CHAPTER 5
Job 5:1
1 Call now, if there be any that will answer thee; and to which of the saints
wilt thou turn?
Job 5:2
2 For wrath killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly one. Job 5:3
3 I have seen the foolish taking root: but suddenly I cursed his habitation.
Job 5:4
4 His children are far from safety, and they are crushed in the gate, neither
is there any to deliver them. Job 5:5
5 Whose harvest the hungry eateth up, and taketh it even out of the thorns, and
the robber swalloweth up their substance. Job 5:6
6 Although affliction cometh not forth of the dust, neither doth trouble spring
out of the ground;
Job 5:7
7 Yet man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward. Job 5:8
8 I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause: Job 5:9
9 Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number:
Job 5:10
10 Who giveth rain upon the earth, and sendeth waters upon the fields: Job 5:11
11 To set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted
to safety.
Job 5:12
12 He disappointeth the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot
perform their enterprise.
Job 5:13
13 He taketh the wise in their own craftiness: and the counsel of the froward
is carried headlong.
Job 5:14
14 They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope in the noonday as in the
night.
Job 5:15
15 But he saveth the poor from the sword, from their mouth, and from the hand
of the mighty.
Job 5:16
16 So the poor hath hope, and iniquity stoppeth her mouth. Job 5:17
17 Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the
chastening of the Almighty:
Job 5:18
18 For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his hands make whole.
Job 5:19
19 He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil
touch thee.
Job 5:20
20 In famine he shall redeem thee from death: and in war from the power of the
sword.
Job 5:21
21 Thou shalt be hid from the scourge of the tongue: neither shalt thou be
afraid of destruction when it cometh. Job 5:22
22 At destruction and famine thou shalt laugh: neither shalt thou be afraid of
the beasts of the earth.
Job 5:23
23 For thou shalt be in league with the stones of the field: and the beasts of
the field shall be at peace with thee. Job 5:24
24 And thou shalt know that thy tabernacle shall be in peace; and thou shalt
visit thy habitation, and shalt not sin. Job 5:25
25 Thou shalt know also that thy seed shall be great, and thine offspring as
the grass of the earth.
Job 5:26
26 Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a shock of corn cometh
in in his season.
Job 5:27
27 Lo this, we have searched it, so it is; hear it, and know thou it for thy
good.
CHAPTER 6
Job 6:1
1 But Job answered and said,
Job 6:2
2 Oh that my grief were throughly weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances
together!
Job 6:3
3 For now it would be heavier than the sand of the sea: therefore my words are
swallowed up.
Job 6:4
4 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. Job 6:5
5 Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? or loweth the ox over his fodder?
Job 6:6
6 Can that which is unsavoury be eaten without salt? or is there any taste in
the white of an egg?
Job 6:7
7 The things that my soul refused to touch are as my sorrowful meat. Job 6:8
8 Oh that I might have my request; and that God would grant me the thing that I
long for!
Job 6:9
9 Even that it would please God to destroy me; that he would let loose his
hand, and cut me off!
Job 6:10
10 Then should I yet have comfort; yea, I would harden myself in sorrow: let
him not spare; for I have not concealed the words of the Holy One. Job 6:11
11 What is my strength, that I should hope? and what is mine end, that I should
prolong my life?
Job 6:12
12 Is my strength the strength of stones? or is my flesh of brass? Job 6:13
13 Is not my help in me? and is wisdom driven quite from me? Job 6:14
14 To him that is afflicted pity should be shewed from his friend; but he
forsaketh the fear of the Almighty. Job 6:15
15 My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook, and as the stream of brooks
they pass away;
Job 6:16
16 Which are blackish by reason of the ice, and wherein the snow is hid: Job
6:17
17 What time they wax warm, they vanish: when it is hot, they are consumed out
of their place.
Job 6:18
18 The paths of their way are turned aside; they go to nothing, and perish. Job
6:19
19 The troops of Tema looked, the companies of Sheba waited for them. Job 6:20
20 They were confounded because they had hoped; they came thither, and were
ashamed.
Job 6:21
21 For now ye are nothing; ye see my casting down, and are afraid. Job 6:22
22 Did I say, Bring unto me? or, Give a reward for me of your substance? Job
6:23
23 Or, Deliver me from the enemy's hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the
mighty?
Job 6:24
24 Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I
have erred.
Job 6:25
25 How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove? Job 6:26
26 Do ye imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate,
which are as wind?
Job 6:27
27 Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and ye dig a pit for your friend. Job 6:28
28 Now therefore be content, look upon me; for it is evident unto you if I lie.
Job 6:29
29 Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity; yea, return again, my
righteousness is in it.
Job 6:30
30 Is there iniquity in my tongue? cannot my taste discern perverse things?
CHAPTER 7
Job 7:1
1 Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also like
the days of an hireling?
Job 7:2
2 As a servant earnestly desireth the shadow, and as an hireling looketh for
the reward of his work:
Job 7:3
3 So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed
to me.
Job 7:4
4 When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am
full of tossings to and fro unto the dawning of the day. Job 7:5
5 My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin is broken, and
become loathsome.
Job 7:6
6 My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are spent without hope. Job
7:7
7 O remember that my life is wind: mine eye shall no more see good. Job 7:8
8 The eye of him that hath seen me shall see me no more: thine eyes are upon
me, and I am not.
Job 7:9
9 As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth down to the
grave shall come up no more.
Job 7:10
10 He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any
more.
Job 7:11
11 Therefore I will not refrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my
spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul. Job 7:12
12 Am I a sea, or a whale, that thou settest a watch over me? Job 7:13
13 When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint; Job
7:14
14 Then thou scarest me with dreams, and terrifiest me through visions: Job
7:15
15 So that my soul chooseth strangling, and death rather than my life. Job 7:16
16 I loathe it; I would not live alway: let me alone; for my days are vanity.
Job 7:17
17 What is man, that thou shouldest magnify him? and that thou shouldest set
thine heart upon him?
Job 7:18
18 And that thou shouldest visit him every morning, and try him every moment?
Job 7:19
19 How long wilt thou not depart from me, nor let me alone till I swallow down
my spittle?
Job 7:20
20 I have sinned; what shall I do unto thee, O thou preserver of men? why hast
thou set me as a mark against thee, so that I am a burden to myself? Job 7:21
21 And why dost thou not pardon my transgression, and take away mine iniquity?
for now shall I sleep in the dust; and thou shalt seek me in the morning, but I
shall not be.
