Job 6:2-12

2 utinam adpenderentur peccata mea quibus iram merui et calamitas quam patior in statera

2 “If only my anguish could be weighed and all my misery be placed on the scales!

3 quasi harena maris haec gravior appareret unde et verba mea dolore sunt plena

3 It would surely outweigh the sand of the seas— no wonder my words have been impetuous.

4 quia sagittae Domini in me sunt quarum indignatio ebibit spiritum meum et terrores Domini militant contra me

4 The arrows of the Almighty are in me, my spirit drinks in their poison; God’s terrors are marshaled against me.

5 numquid rugiet onager cum habuerit herbam aut mugiet bos cum ante praesepe plenum steterit

5 Does a wild donkey bray when it has grass, or an ox bellow when it has fodder?

6 aut poterit comedi insulsum quod non est sale conditum aut potest aliquis gustare quod gustatum adfert mortem

6 Is tasteless food eaten without salt, or is there flavor in the sap of the mallow ?

7 quae prius tangere nolebat anima mea nunc prae angustia cibi mei sunt

7 I refuse to touch it; such food makes me ill.

8 quis det ut veniat petitio mea et quod expecto tribuat mihi Deus

8 “Oh, that I might have my request, that God would grant what I hope for,

9 et qui coepit ipse me conterat solvat manum suam et succidat me

9 that God would be willing to crush me, to let loose his hand and cut off my life!

10 et haec mihi sit consolatio ut adfligens me dolore non parcat nec contradicam sermonibus Sancti

10 Then I would still have this consolation— my joy in unrelenting pain— that I had not denied the words of the Holy One.

11 quae est enim fortitudo mea ut sustineam aut quis finis meus ut patienter agam

11 “What strength do I have, that I should still hope? What prospects, that I should be patient?

12 nec fortitudo lapidum fortitudo mea nec caro mea aerea est

12 Do I have the strength of stone? Is my flesh bronze?
