ગુજરાતીઅયૂબ ૧૬:૬
જો કે હું બોલું તો પણ મારું દુ:ખ દૂર થવાનું નથી; અને જો હું ચૂપ રહું તો મને કેવી રીતે આરામ મળે?
हिन्दीअय्यूब १६:६
“चाहे मैं बोलूँ तो भी मेरा शोक न घटेगा, चाहे मैं चुप रहूँ, तो भी मेरा दुःख कुछ कम न होगा।

In context

4I also could speak as you do. If your soul were in my soul’s place, I could join words together against you, and shake my head at you,

5but I would strengthen you with my mouth. The solace of my lips would relieve you.

6“Though I speak, my grief is not subsided. Though I forbear, what am I eased?

7But now, God, you have surely worn me out. You have made all my company desolate.

8You have shriveled me up. This is a witness against me. My leanness rises up against me. It testifies to my face.
