3 For now it would be heavier than the sand of the seas,therefore have my words been rash.
4 For the arrows of the Almighty are within me.My spirit drinks up their poison.The terrors of God set themselves in array against me.
5 Does the wild donkey bray when he has grass?Or does the ox low over his fodder?
6 Can that which has no flavour be eaten without salt?Or is there any taste in the white of an egg?
7 My soul refuses to touch them.They are as loathsome food to me.
8 “Oh that I might have my request,that God would grant the thing that I long for,
9 even that it would please God to crush me;that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off!
