19 The caravans of Tema look on; the travelers of Sheba hope for them. 20 They are ashamed that they had trusted; they come unto her and are confounded. 21 For now you⁺ are nothing; you⁺ see terror, and you⁺ are afraid. 22 Is it that I said, ‘Give to me, or from your⁺ strength offer a bribe on my behalf? 23 Or Deliver me from the hand of the enemy, or ransom me from the hand of dreadful ones’? 24 teach me, and I will be silent, and give understanding to me of how I have erred. 25 How painful are upright words! Yet what does your⁺ argument prove? 26 Do you⁺ think to correct my words? And are the sayings of one despairing for wind? 27 Indeed, over the fatherless you⁺ make it fall, and you⁺ would trade away your⁺ friend. 28 And now, may you be willing to turn toward me, or would I lie to your⁺ face? 29 Turn, please, let there not be injustice; and turn even now—my righteousness is in it. 30 Is there injustice on my tongue? Can my palate not discern malice? Job 6:19-30, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
