6 Can food that is tasteless be eaten without salt?Or is there any taste in the white of an egg?
7 I have refused to touch such things;they are like loathsome food to me.
8 “Oh that my request would be realized, and that God would grant me what I long for!
9 And that God would be willing to crush me,that he would let loose his hand and kill me.
10 Then I would yet have my comfort,then I would rejoice, in spite of pitiless pain,for I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.
11 What is my strength, that I should wait?and what is my end, that I should prolong my life?
12 Is my strength like that of stones?or is my flesh made of bronze?
