Job 7
- 1 Is there not an appointed time to man on earth? are not his days also like the days of an hireling?
- 2 As a servant earnestly desires the shadow, and as an hireling looks for the reward of his work:
- 3 So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed to me.
- 4 When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am full of tossings to and fro to the dawning of the day.
- 5 My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin is broken, and become loathsome.
- 6 My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle, and are spent without hope.
- 7 O remember that my life is wind: my eye shall no more see good.
- 8 The eye of him that has seen me shall see me no more: your eyes are on me, and I am not.
- 9 As the cloud is consumed and vanishes away: so he that goes down to the grave shall come up no more.
- 10 He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more.
- 11 Therefore I will not refrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
- 12 Am I a sea, or a whale, that you set a watch over me?
- 13 When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaints;
- 14 Then you scare me with dreams, and terrify me through visions:
- 15 So that my soul chooses strangling, and death rather than my life.
- 16 I loathe it; I would not live always: let me alone; for my days are vanity.
- 17 What is man, that you should magnify him? and that you should set your heart on him?
- 18 And that you should visit him every morning, and try him every moment?
- 19 How long will you not depart from me, nor let me alone till I swallow down my spittle?
- 20 I have sinned; what shall I do to you, O you preserver of men? why have you set me as a mark against you, so that I am a burden to myself?
- 21 And why do you not pardon my transgression, and take away my iniquity? for now shall I sleep in the dust; and you shall seek me in the morning, but I shall not be.
