Job 6:28 — Meaning and Application

Do ye imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, {which are} as wind?

Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and ye dig {a pit} for your friend. {ye overwhelm: Heb. ye cause to fall upon}

Now therefore be content, look upon me; for {it is} evident unto you if I lie. {evident...: Heb. before your face}

Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity; yea, return again, my righteousness {is} in it. {in it: that is, in this matter}

Is there iniquity in my tongue? cannot my taste discern perverse things? {my taste: Heb. my palate}
