Job 16:5 BBE

³  May words which are like the wind be stopped? or what is troubling you to make answer to them?

⁴  It would not be hard for me to say such things if your souls were in my soul's place; joining words together against you, and shaking my head at you:

⁵  I might give you strength with my mouth, and not keep back the comfort of my lips.

⁶  If I say what is in my mind, my pain becomes no less: and if I keep quiet, how much of it goes from me?

⁷  But now he has overcome me with weariness and fear, and I am in the grip of all my trouble.
