Job 16:5
King James Version
“I would strengthen you with my mouth, and the moving of my lips should asswage”
Context
2I have heard many such things: miserable comforters ye all.
3Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldeneth thee that thou answerest?
4I also could speak as ye if your soul were in my soul’s stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake mine head at you.
5I would strengthen you with my mouth, and the moving of my lips should asswage
6Though I speak, my grief is not asswaged: and I forbear, what am I eased?
7But now he hath made me weary: thou hast made desolate all my company.
8And thou hast filled me with wrinkles, is a witness and my leanness rising up in me beareth witness to my face.
