1. And Iyoḇ answered and said,
2. “I have heard many matters like these; all of you are comforters of trouble!
3. Is there an end to words of wind? Or what provokes you that you answer?
4. I might also speak like you, if you were in my place. I might heap up words against you, and shake my head at you.
5. I might strengthen you with my mouth, and my moving lips might bring relief.
6. If I speak, my pain is not relieved; and if I refrain, does it leave me?
7. But now He has wearied me. You have stunned all my company.
8. And You have plucked me, and it is a witness. And my failure rises up against me, it bears witness to my face.
9. He has torn in His wrath, and He hates me. He has gnashed at me with His teeth; my adversary sharpens His eyes upon me.
