Job 6:5

Job 6:5

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?

7 My soul refuses to touch them;
They are as loathsome food to me.

John Wesley's Notes

<< Job 6:4

Job 6:6 >>

Doth, etc. - Even the brute beasts, when they have convenient food, are quiet and contented. So it is no wonder that you complain not, who live in ease and prosperity, any more than I did, when I wanted nothing.
