Job 6:9

Job's Second Speech: A Response To Eliphaz

⁸ O that my request may come, That God may grant my hope! ⁹ That God would please -- and bruise me, Loose His hand and cut me off! ¹⁰ And yet it is my comfort, (And I exult in pain -- He doth not spare,) That I have not hidden The sayings of the Holy One.
