Job 6:13

Is ¹  not my power to help myself nothing, and has not every resource ²  been driven from me?

Job 12:2,3; Job 13:2; Job 19:28; 2Co 1:12; Ga 6:4

¹ tn For the use of the particle אִם (’im) in this kind of interrogative clause, see GKC 475 §150.g, note.

² tn The word means something like “recovery,” or the powers of recovery; it was used in Job 5:12. In 11:6 it applies to a condition of the mind, such as mental resource. Job is thinking not so much of relief or rescue from his troubles, but of strength to bear them.
