Job 6:3-5
Contemporary English Version
3 They outweigh the sand
along the beach,
and that's why I have spoken
without thinking first.
4 The fearsome arrows
of God All-Powerful
have filled my soul
with their poison.
5 Do oxen and wild donkeys
cry out in distress
unless they are hungry?
Job 6:3-5
New International Version
3 It would surely outweigh the sand(A) of the seas—
no wonder my words have been impetuous.(B)
4 The arrows(C) of the Almighty(D) are in me,(E)
my spirit drinks(F) in their poison;(G)
God’s terrors(H) are marshaled against me.(I)
5 Does a wild donkey(J) bray(K) when it has grass,
or an ox bellow when it has fodder?(L)
Job 6:3-5
King James Version
3 For now it would be heavier than the sand of the sea: therefore my words are swallowed up.
4 For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.
5 Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? or loweth the ox over his fodder?
