Job 6:25-27

Amplified Bible

“How painful are words of honesty.
But what does your argument prove?
²⁶
“Do you intend to reprove my words [with a convincing argument],
When the words of one in despair belong to the wind [and go ignored]?
²⁷
“You would cast lots (gamble) over the fatherless
And bargain away your friend.
