Job 6:25

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

How painful are honest words! But what does your argument prove?

In context

23 deliver me from the hand of the enemy; redeem me from the grasp of the ruthless’?

24 Teach me, and I will be silent. Help me understand how I have erred.

25 How painful are honest words! But what does your argument prove?

26 Do you intend to correct my words, and treat as wind my cry of despair?

27 You would even cast lots for an orphan and barter away your friend.
