Job - Chapter: 6


6:1	Iob answered also, & sayde:
6:2	O that the displeasure which I haue were truly weyed, and my punishment layed in the balaunces togeather:
6:3	for now is it heuyer then the sande of the see. And thys is the cause, that my wordes are so sorowfull.
6:4	For the arowes of the almighty are round about me, whose indygnacyon hath droncke vp my sprete, and the terrible feares of God are sett agaynst me.
6:5	Doth the wylde asse roare when he hath grasse? Or cryeth the oxe, when he hath foder ynough?
6:6	That which is vnsauery, shalt it be eaten without salte, or is there any taste in the whyte of an egge?
6:7	The thynges that some tyme I myght not awaye withall, are now my meate for very sorowe.
6:8	O that I myght haue my desyre: and that God wolde graunte me the thynge that I longe for.
6:9	O that God wold begynne and smyte me: that he wolde let hys hande go, and take me cleane awaye.
6:10	Then shulde I haue some comforte: yee, I wolde desyre hym in my payne, that he shulde not spare, for I wyll not be agaynst the wordes of the holy one.
6:11	For what power haue I to endure? And what is myne ende, that my soule myght be pacient?
6:12	Is my strength the strength of stones? Or, is my flesh made of brasse?
6:13	Is it not so that there is in me no helpe: and that my substaunce is taken from me.
6:14	He that is in tribulacyon ought to be comforted of hys neyghbour: but the feare of the Lord is cleane awaye.
6:15	Myne awne brethren passe ouer by me as the water brooke, and as the ryuer of water, do hastely go awaye.
6:16	But they that feare the hore frost, the snowe shall fall vpon them.
6:17	When theyr tyme commeth, they shalbe destroyed and peryshe: when they be sett on fyre, they shalbe remoued out of theyr place,
6:18	for the pathes that they go in, are croked: they haste after vayne thynges, and shall perysh.
6:19	They turne them to the pathes of Theman, and to the wayes of Saba, wherin they haue put their trust.
6:20	Confounded are they that put eny confydence in them. For whan they come to obtayne the thynges that they loke for, they are brought to confusion.
6:21	Euen so are ye also come vnto me: but now that ye se my misery, ye are afrayed.
6:22	Dyd I desyre you, to bryng vnto me, or to geue me eny of youre substaunce?
6:23	To delyuer me from the enemyes hande, or to saue me from the hande of tyrauntes?
6:24	Teache me, and I wyll holde my tonge: and whan I do erre, shewe me wherin.
6:25	How stedfast are the wordes of treuth?
6:26	And which of you can rebuke and reproue them? Do ye take deliberacyon to check mens sayinges, and iudge a pore worde spoken in vayne?
6:27	Ye fall vpon the fatherles and go about to ouerthrowe your awne frende.
6:28	And therfore be content, and loke now vpon me, and I wyll not lye before youre face.
6:29	Turne (I praye you) be indifferent iudges, turne agayne, and ye shall se myne vngyltinesse:
6:30	whether there be eny vnrighteousnesse in my tong, or vayne wordes in my mouth.


6:1	Forsothe Joob answeride, and seide,
6:2	Y wolde, that my synnes, bi whiche Y `desseruede ire, and the wretchidnesse which Y suffre, weren peisid in a balaunce.
6:3	As the grauel of the see, this wretchidnesse schulde appere greuousere; wherfor and my wordis ben ful of sorewe.
6:4	For the arowis of the Lord ben in me, the indignacioun of whiche drynkith vp my spirit; and the dredis of the Lord fiyten ayens me.
6:5	Whether a feeld asse schal rore, whanne he hath gras? Ethir whether an oxe schal lowe, whanne he stondith byfor a `ful cratche?
6:6	Ether whethir a thing vnsauery may be etun, which is not maad sauery bi salt? Ether whether ony man may taaste a thing, which tastid bryngith deeth? For whi to an hungri soule, yhe, bittir thingis semen to be swete; tho thingis whiche my soule nolde touche bifore, ben now my meetis for angwisch.
6:7	n/a
6:8	Who yyueth, that myn axyng come; and that God yyue to me that, that Y abide?
6:9	And he that bigan, al to-breke me; releesse he his hond, and kitte me doun?
6:10	And `this be coumfort to me, that he turmente me with sorewe, and spare not, and that Y ayenseie not the wordis of the hooli.
6:11	For whi, what is my strengthe, that Y suffre? ethir which is myn ende, that Y do pacientli?
6:12	Nethir my strengthe is the strengthe of stoonus, nether my fleisch is of bras.
6:13	Lo! noon help is to me in me; also my meyneal frendis `yeden awey fro me.
6:14	He that takith awei merci fro his frend, forsakith the drede of the Lord.
6:15	My britheren passiden me, as a stronde doith, that passith ruschyngli in grete valeis.
6:16	Snow schal come on hem, that dreden frost.
6:17	In the tyme wherynne thei ben scaterid, thei schulen perische; and as thei ben hoote, thei schulen be vnknyt fro her place.
6:18	The pathis of her steppis ben wlappid; thei schulen go in veyn, and schulen perische.
6:19	Biholde ye the pathis of Theman, and the weies of Saba; and abide ye a litil.
6:20	Thei ben schent, for Y hopide; and thei camen `til to me, and thei ben hilid with schame.
6:21	Now ye ben comun, and now ye seen my wounde, and dreden.
6:22	Whether Y seide, Brynge ye to me, and yiue ye of youre catel to me? ethir,
6:23	Delyuere ye me fro the hond of enemy, and rauysche ye me fro the hond of stronge men?
6:24	Teche ye me, and Y schal be stille; and if in hap Y vnknew ony thing, teche ye me.
6:25	Whi han ye depraued the wordis of trewthe? sithen noon is of you, that may repreue me.
6:26	Ye maken redi spechis oneli for to blame, and ye bryngen forth wordis in to wynde.
6:27	Ye fallen in on a fadirles child, and enforsen to peruerte youre frend.
6:28	Netheles fille ye that, that ye han bigunne; yyue ye the eere, and se ye, whether Y lie.
6:29	Y biseche, answere ye with out strijf, and speke ye, and deme ye that, that is iust.
6:30	And ye schulen not fynde wickidnesse in my tunge, nethir foli schal sowne in my chekis.


6:1	Iob answered, and sayde:
6:2	O that my misery weere weyed, and my punyshment layed in the balaunces:
6:3	for then shulde it be heuyer, then the sonde of the see. This is the cause, that my wordes are so soroufull.
6:4	For the allmighty hath shott at me with his arowes, whose indignacion hath droncke vp my sprete, and ye terrible feares of God fight agaysnt me.
6:5	Doth the wilde asse roare when he hath grasse? Or crieth the oxe, whe he hath fodder ynough?
6:6	Maye a thynge be eaten vnseasoned, or without salt? What taist hath ye whyte within the yoke an egg?
6:7	The thinges that sometyme I might not awaye withall, are now my meate for very sorow.
6:8	O that I might haue my desyre: O yt God wolde graunte me the thynge, that I longe for:
6:9	That he wolde begynne and smyte me: that he wolde let his honde go, & hew me downe.
6:10	The shulde I haue some coforte: yee I wolde desyre him in my payne, that he shulde not spare, for I will not be agaynst ye wordes of the holy one.
6:11	What power haue I to endure? Or? what is myne ende, that my soule might be paciet?
6:12	Is my strength the strength of stones? Or, is my flesh made of brasse?
6:13	Am I able to helpe my self? Is not my strength gone fro me,
6:14	like as yf one withdrewe a good dede from his frende, and forsoke the feare of God?
6:15	Myne owne brethren passe ouer by me as the waterbroke, that hastely runneth thorow ye valleys.
6:16	But they that feare the horefrost, the snowe shal fall vpon them.
6:17	When their tyme cometh, they shalbe destroyed and perishe: and when they be set on fyre, they shalbe remoued out of their place,
6:18	for the pathes yt they go in, are croked: they haist after vayne thinges, and shal perish.
6:19	Considre the pathes off Theman, & the wayes off Saba, wherin they haue put their trust.
6:20	Confounded are they, that put eny cofidence in them: For whe they came to opteyne the thynges that they loked for, they were brought to confucion.
6:21	Eue so are ye also come vnto me: but now that ye se my mysery, ye are afrayed.
6:22	Dyd I desyre you, to come hyther? Or, to geue me eny off youre substaunce?
6:23	To delyuer me me from the enemies honde, or to saue me from the powers off the mightie?
6:24	Teach me and I will holde my tonge: and yf I do erre, shewe me wherin.
6:25	Wherfore blame ye then the wordes, that are well and truly spoken?
6:26	which of you can reproue them? Sauynge only that ye are sotyll to check mens sayenges, and can speake many wordes in the wynde.
6:27	Ye fall vpon the fatherlesse, ad go aboute to ouerthrowe youre owne frende.
6:28	Wherfore loke not only vpon me, but vpon youre selues: whether I lye, or no.
6:29	Turne into youre owne selues (I praye you) be indifferent iudges, and considre myne vngyltinesse:
6:30	whether there be eny vnrightuousnesse in my tonge, or vayne wordes in my mouth.
