Job Chapter 6

Job 6

Job's first reaction 

1 Job answered and said,

2 had it been, someone's grief/vexation altogether were to be (hayah) lifted and to be (havah) weighed on a measuring-balance, what a shekel it would be!

3 my matter will be as heavy as the sand that will gulp up the sea,-

4 - - if the poison of the arrow of the overpowering one (shadday) is drunk up, the dread/the difficult times is taking a stand against the value/worth of the Spirit of the Extremely-Mighty God.

5 Why will a wild-ass bray/growl before grass? why will mixture of feeds for oxen/bull be in elevated place? 

6 how would slime/insipid things be eaten with salt? Is there exist a taste in a  mucus/saliva while dreaming?

7 even, a sorrowful soul will be unwilling to touch food. 

8 - if granted to come for a request before the Extremely Mighty God, what a given hope for me!

9 what an Extremely Mighty God (Eloah eloah), that will consent to bruising and plundering someone and will shake off HIS HAND! 

10 Such that, the utterances of consolation in the holy of Holies will be denied and sparing/commiserating with someone in travail/pain will be rejected/abhorred. 

11 What is the vigor of a soul? How (far) will he wait for the uttermost end, if it is deferred/extended? 

12 Is his vigor/strength as that of stone? Is the strength of flesh as bronze?

13 it is like, when the all-round-help from his resourcefulness (to support him) is driven way;

14 when friends/associates forsake their kindness to the afflicted one, who is under the terror of the overpowering one/mighty-burly one (shadday);

15 when one's brother covers up (deceitfully) and pass through a stream in an estate/farm, even one's own estate, 

16 and when the dark-colour of mourning is concealed/veiled by a (whitish) frost/ice of  snow - 

17 - however, during hot season/time, it is a crossroad that all of them will diminish/wane, and flow away from the place. 

18 it is like someone who have  ascended on the road, and was tempted into a formless/chaotic path, and get lost:

19 like Tema, on a procession/a march to Sheba and hoping for what will emerge on their path there. (Sheba is a kingdom of Yemen and Ethiopian region) -

(note: Eliphaz is an Ishmaelite from Tema) 

20 - they trusted themselves and went there  before detecting, they will be put to shame. 

21 they were afraid as they saw them and they were dismayed/cast down. 

22 it is said, why bribing is being given out to anyone because of his vigor/strength? 

23 whose hand would have redeemed them from a tight place, and even be rescued from the hand of tyrannical ones?

24 they will fearfully devise/imagine in silence and understand where they have gone astray. 

25 what an energy/pressure are in the utterances that will correct things! And why convincing/correcting the upright?

26 If your words are contrived/plaited by the SPIRIT, why will the utterances that will convince/correct be desperate/be unto despair? 

27 if an orphan fall down, (bad) friends/neighbors had dug/plotted it for him. 

28 if you turn your face to those who tell-lies, you may yield/consent to them.

29 if you turn back from rising-iniquities - you will be restored by Justification. 

30 can rising-inquities exist in a tongue? How can someone understand that it had been in the palate of his mouth?
