Job 6:2

Bible in Basic English 1965

If only my passion might be measured, and put into the scales against my trouble!

See the chapter Copy

Even today my outcry is bitter; his hand is hard on my sorrow.

Let me be measured in upright scales, and let God see my righteousness:

But now it has come on you and it is a weariness to you; you are touched by it and your mind is troubled.

And Job made answer and said,

No one has knowledge of a man's grief but himself; and a strange person has no part in his joy.
