False Friends Near, Real Friends Far
(c) Manno Charlemagne
Geneva-Nuremburg Bible, Job's false friendz near:
"[l]considered them, and they that go to Sheba, waited for them."
Footnotes:
Job 6:15 He compareth those friends which comfort us not in misery, to a brook, which in summer, when we need water, is dry, in winter is hard frozen, and in the time of rain, when we have no need, overfloweth with water.(UN Cholera Troops)
Job 6:19 They that pass thereby to go into the hot countries of Arabia, think to find water there to quench their thirst, but they are deceived.
Job 6:21 That is, like to this brook which deceiveth them that think to have water there in their need, as I looked for consolation at your hands.
Job 6:22 He toucheth the worldlings, which for necessity will give part of their goods, and much more these men, which would not give him comfortable words.
Job 6:24 Show me wherein I have erred, and I will confess my fault.
Job 6:25 He that hath a good conscience doth not shrink at the sharp words or reasonings of others, except they be able to persuade him by reason.
Job 6:26 Do you cavil at my words because I should be thought to speak foolishly, which am now in misery?
Job 6:28 Consider whether I speak as one that is driven to this impatience through very sorrow, or as an hypocrite as you condemn me.
