“To him that is afflicted pity should be shewed from his friend; but he forsaketh the fear of the Almighty.”
King James Version (KJV)
6:14 To him - Heb. to him that is melted or dissolved with affections. But. &c. - But thou hast no pity for thy friend; a plain evidence that thou art guilty of what thou didst charge me with, even of the want of the fear of God. The least which those that are at ease can do for them that are pained, is to pity them, to feel a tender concern for them, and to sympathize with them.
To him that is afflicted, pitie should be shewed from his friend; But he forsaketh the feare of the Almighty.
