Job 16:1-2-6 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

1-2. I have heard words like that before;the comfort you give is only torment.

3. Are you going to keep on talking for ever?Do you always have to have the last word?

4. If you were in my place and I in yours,I could say everything you are saying.I could shake my head wiselyand drown you with a flood of words.

5. I could strengthen you with adviceand keep talking to comfort you.

6. But nothing I say helps,and being silent does not calm my pain.
