    In Job 6:10, אֲסַלְּדָ֣ה is a Piel cohortative in the speaker's statement about consolation in pain; the APB renders the verse, "This would still be my consolation, and I would exult in pain without sparing," confirming a rejoicing response within that condition.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Job 6:10, the APB presents the clause as "I would exult in pain without sparing." This rendering confirms the verse's overall portrayal rather than isolating a precise English equivalent.
