Job 6:21-27 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

21. Now you have arrived, and merely by seeing my affliction, you are afraid.

22. Did I say: "Bring to me and give to me from your necessities?"

23. or, "Free me from the hand of the enemy and rescue me from the hand of the strong?"

24. Teach me, and I will be silent, and if by chance I have been ignorant of anything, instruct me.

25. Why have you diminished the words of truth, when there is none of you who is able to offer proof against me?

26. You prepare speeches as so much noise, and you offer words into the wind.

27. You encroach upon the orphan, and you strive to undermine your friend.
