Job 6:9

Job's Second Speech: A Response To Eliphaz

⁸ Oh that I might have my desire, and that God would grant the thing that I long for! ⁹ Even that it would please God to destroy me; that He would loose His hand and cut me off! ¹⁰ And it is yet my comfort; yea, I would rejoice in pain, though He did not spare me; for I have not hidden the words of the Holy One.
