Job 16:1-5 New English Translation (NET)

1. Then Job replied:

2. “I have heard many things like these before.What miserable comforters are you all!

3. Will there be an end to your windy words?Or what provokes you that you answer?

4. I also could speak like you,if you were in my place;I could pile up words against youand I could shake my head at you.

5. But I would strengthen you with my words;comfort from my lips would bring you relief.
