Job 6:2

Catholic Public Domain Version

I wish that my sins, for which I deserve wrath, and the calamity that I endure, were weighed out on a balance.

See the chapter Copy

Now again my conversation is in bitterness, and the force of my scourging weighs more heavily on me because of my mourning.

let him weigh me in a just balance, and let God know my simplicity.

But now the scourge has overcome you, and you falter. It has touched you, and you are disturbed.

But Job, responding, said:

The heart that knows the bitterness of its own soul, in its gladness the outsider shall not meddle.
