deliver me from the hand of the enemy; redeem me from the grasp of the ruthless’?

Job 6:23 in context

The verses around it, from Job 6.

19 The caravans of Tema look for water; the travelers of Sheba hope to find it.

20 They are confounded because they had hoped; their arrival brings disappointment.

21 For now you are of no help; you see terror, and you are afraid.

22 Have I ever said, ‘Give me something; offer me a bribe from your wealth;

23 deliver me from the hand of the enemy; redeem me from the grasp of the ruthless’?

24 Teach me, and I will be silent. Help me understand how I have erred.

25 How painful are honest words! But what does your argument prove?

26 Do you intend to correct my words, and treat as wind my cry of despair?

27 You would even cast lots for an orphan and barter away your friend.
