Job 6:7

⁵ Does a wild donkey bray over fresh grass, or an ox low over its fodder?

⁶ Is tasteless food eaten without salt, or is there flavor in the white of an egg ?

My soul refuses to touch them; they are loathsome food to me.

⁸ If only my request were granted and God would fulfill my hope:

⁹ that God would be willing to crush me, to unleash His hand and cut me off!

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
