Job 4:5

But now the same thing comes to you, and you are discouraged; it strikes you, and you are terrified.

Have pity on me, my friends, have pity on me, for the hand of God has struck me.

But extend your hand and strike everything he has, and he will no doubt curse you to your face!"

But extend your hand and strike his bone and his flesh, and he will no doubt curse you to your face!"

For the very thing I dreaded has happened to me, and what I feared has come upon me.

"To the one in despair, kindness should come from his friend even if he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.

If you faint in the day of trouble, your strength is small!

Therefore, since we have this ministry, just as God has shown us mercy, we do not become discouraged.

Therefore we do not despair, but even if our physical body is wearing away, our inner person is being renewed day by day.

Think of him who endured such opposition against himself by sinners, so that you may not grow weary in your souls and give up.

And have you forgotten the exhortation addressed to you as sons? "My son, do not scorn the Lord's discipline or give up when he corrects you.
