Job 16:6

American Standard Version (1901)

Though I speak, my grief is not assuaged; And though I forbear, what am I eased?

See the chapter Copy

My soul is weary of my life; I will give free course to my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.

If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will put off my sad countenance, and be of good cheer;

I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that thou wilt not hold me innocent.

But I would strengthen you with my mouth, And the solace of my lips would assuage your grief.
