Job 6:14-16

Common English Bible

¹⁴ Are friends loyal to the one who despairs,^[a]
    or do they stop fearing the Almighty?
¹⁵ My companions are treacherous like a stream in the desert,
    like channels that overrun their streambeds,
¹⁶     like those darkened by thawing ice,
        in which snow is obscured
