Job 3

Job's First Speech

Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said, There is a man child conceived.
Job 3:3 • King James Version

Job's Lament

Let the day of my birth disappear from the earth;
how I wish I had never been born!
You don't know how I'm grieved that my mother conceived,
and I hold my conception in scorn.
Poem

Job 4

Eliphaz's First Response to Job

Who can keep from speaking at a time like this?
Look! You’ve admonished many people,
and you’ve strengthened feeble hands.

Job 4:2-3 • International Standard Version

​​Will you find my words too distressing?
Regardless — I really must speak.
For you've been to many a blessing,
and strengthened the hands of the weak.
Poem

Job 3
