Job 6:9 in context

  1. 7My soul refuses to touch them.
    They are as loathsome food to me.
  2. 8“Oh that I might have my request,
    that God would grant the thing that I long for,
  3. 9even that it would please God to crush me;
    that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off!
  4. 10Let still be my consolation,
    yes, let me exult in pain that doesn’t spare,
    that I have not denied the words of the Holy One.
  5. 11What is my strength, that I should wait?
    What is my end, that I should be patient?
