Pi`el Imperfect 1 singular וַאֲסַלְּדָה Job 6:10 and I would spring (for joy) in (my) anguish.
סָלַד ἅπαξ λεγόμ. in Piel סִלֵּד to leap, to spring, to exult, Arab. صلد (ס and צ being interchanged), to leap as a horse, so that the stones give forth sparks. Job 6:10, “that is my consolation, וַאֲסַלְּדָה בְחִילָה לֹא יַחְמֹל and I exult, in pain (which) does not spare, that I have not denied the decrees of the Most Holy;” LXX. render אֲסַלְּדָה by ἡλλόμην, Vulg. saliebam, although they differ altogether in rendering the other words. Others, as Saadiah, Abulwalid, Kimchi, by comparison with the Chald. סְלַד to burn, make the second hemistich concessive, or parenthetic, and thus translate, “although I burn (i.e. am in anguish; compare דָּלַק) with grief which does not spare.” Hence
