Job 6:15

Job 6:15 in 6 English translations. Each links through to the full chapter for context.

New International Version (NIV)

15But my brothers are as undependable as intermittent streams,

as the streams that overflow

15“My brothers have acted deceitfully like a 6:15 I.e., dry stream bed(s), except in the rainy seasonwadi,

Like the torrents of 6:15 I.e., dry stream bed(s), except in the rainy seasonwadis which drain away,

15My brothers have acted deceitfully like a wadi,

Like the torrents of wadis which vanish,

15“My brothers have acted deceitfully like a brook,

Like the torrents of brooks that vanish,

15But my brothers are as faithless as wadis,

as seasonal streams that overflow,

15But my friends have stopped being kind to me.

They are like streams that only flow for part of the year.

They are like rivers that flow over their banks
