Job 6:28
But now, please look at me. Would I lie to your face?
BSB
ASV
Now therefore be pleased to look upon me; For surely I shall not lie to your face.
KJV
Now therefore be content, look upon me; for it is evident unto you if I lie.
But fulfil what ye have begun; give ear, and see if I lie. For because he does not fear to endure adversities, let him say, But fulfil what ye have begun; and because he does not withhold the announcements of the Truth from his very persecutors themselves, let him add, Give ear, and see if I lie.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
