Job 6:23 in context

Job 6:20–26

They were distressed because they were confident.

They came there, and were confounded.

or, ‘Offer a present for me from your substance’?

Selected verse

or, ‘Deliver me from the adversary’s hand’?

or, ‘Redeem me from the hand of the oppressors’?

“Teach me, and I will hold my peace.

since the speeches of one who is desperate are as wind?
