Job 6:8-10

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁸ “O that I might have my request
    and that God would grant my desire,^(A)
9 that it would please God to crush me,
    that he would let loose his hand and cut me off!^(B)
10 This would be my consolation;
    I would even exult^[a] in unrelenting pain,
    for I have not denied the words of the Holy One.^(C)
