Job: My Complaint Is Just
1 Then Job answered and said:
2 “Oh, that my grief were fully weighed,
And my calamity laid with it on the scales!
3 For then it would be heavier than the sand of the sea—
Therefore my words have been rash.
4 aFor the arrows of the Almighty
are within me;
My spirit drinks in their poison;
bThe terrors of God are arrayed
cagainst me.
5 Does the
awild donkey bray when it has grass,
Or does the ox low over its fodder?
6 Can flavorless food be eaten without salt?
Or is there
any taste in the white of an egg?
