King James Version (KJV)

Job 6:12

“[Is] my strength the strength of stones? or [is] my flesh of brass?”

Verse in context — Job 6

Then 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.

What [is] my strength, that I should hope? and what [is] mine end, that I should prolong my life?

[Is] my strength the strength of stones? or [is] my flesh of brass?

[Is] not my help in me? and is wisdom driven quite from me?

To him that is afflicted pity [should be shewed] from his friend; but he forsaketh the fear of the Almighty.

A poetic exploration of suffering, faith, and God’s sovereignty.
