Job 6:8

โ€œOh that I might have my request, that God would grant the thing that I long for,โ€

Verse in context โ€” Job 6

6

Can that which has no flavor 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!

10

Be it still my consolation, yes, let me exult in pain that doesn't spare, that I have not denied the words of the Holy One.
