Job 6:25-27

New International Reader's Version

²⁵Honest words are so painful!
    But your reasoning doesn’t prove anything.
²⁶Are you trying to correct what I’m saying?
    Are you treating my hopeless words like nothing but wind?
²⁷You would even cast lots for those whose fathers have died.
    You would even trade away your closest friend.
