Job 16:1-5

The Message

“I’ve had all I can take of your talk.
    What a bunch of miserable comforters!
Is there no end to your windbag speeches?
    What’s your problem that you go on and on like this?
If you were in my shoes,
    I could talk just like you.
I could put together a terrific tirade
    and really let you have it.
But I’d never do that. I’d console and comfort,
    make things better, not worse!
