Job 7:1-21
Job 7:1-21
-
1"Has not man a hard service on earth, and are not his days like the days of a hired hand?
-
2Like a slave who longs for the shadow, and like a hired hand who looks for his wages,
-
3so I am allotted months of emptiness, and nights of misery are apportioned to me.
-
4When I lie down I say, 'When shall I arise?' But the night is long, and I am full of tossing till the dawn.
-
5My flesh is clothed with worms and dirt; my skin hardens, then breaks out afresh.
-
6My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle and come to their end without hope.
-
7"Remember that my life is a breath; my eye will never again see good.
-
8The eye of him who sees me will behold me no more; while your eyes are on me, I shall be gone.
-
9As the cloud fades and vanishes, so he who goes down to Sheol does not come up;
-
10he returns no more to his house, nor does his place know him anymore.
-
11"Therefore I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
-
12Am I the sea, or a sea monster, that you set a guard over me?
-
13When I say, 'My bed will comfort me, my couch will ease my complaint,'
-
14then you scare me with dreams and terrify me with visions,
-
15so that I would choose strangling and death rather than my bones.
-
16I loathe my life; I would not live forever. Leave me alone, for my days are a breath.
-
17What is man, that you make so much of him, and that you set your heart on him,
-
18visit him every morning and test him every moment?
-
19How long will you not look away from me, nor leave me alone till I swallow my spit?
-
20If I sin, what do I do to you, you watcher of mankind? Why have you made me your mark? Why have I become a burden to you?
-
21Why do you not pardon my transgression and take away my iniquity? For now I shall lie in the earth; you will seek me, but I shall not be."
