Job 6:8
King James VersionSource notes
“Oh that I might have my request; and that God would grant the thing that I long for!”
Context
5Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? or loweth the ox over his fodder?
6Can that which is unsavoury be eaten without salt? or is there taste in the white of an egg?
7The things my soul refused to touch as my sorrowful meat.
8Oh that I might have my request; and that God would grant the thing that I long for!
9Even that it would please God to destroy me; that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off!
10Then should I yet have comfort; yea, I would harden myself in sorrow: let him not spare; for I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.
11What my strength, that I should hope? and what mine end, that I should prolong my life?
