    Job 7
    • 1   The life of man upon earth is a warfare, and his days are like the days of a hireling.
    • 2   As a servant longeth for the shade, as the hireling looketh for the end of his work;
    • 3   So I also have had empty months, and have numbered to myself wearisome nights.
    • 4   If I lie down to sleep, I shall say: When shall I rise? and again, I shall look for the evening, and shall be filled with sorrows even till darkness.
    • 5   My flesh is clothed with rottenness and the filth of dust; my skin is withered and drawn together.
    • 6   My days have passed more swiftly than the web is cut by the weaver, and are consumed without any hope.
    • 7   Remember that my life is but wind, and my eye shall not return to see good things.
    • 8   Nor shall the sight of man behold me: thy eyes are upon me, and I shall be no more.
    • 9   As a cloud is consumed, and passeth away: so he that shall go down to hell shall not come up.
    • 10   Nor shall he return any more into his house, neither shall his place know him any more
    • 11   Wherefore, I will not spare my mouth, I will speak in the affliction of my spirit: I will talk with the bitterness of my soul.
    • 12   Am I a sea, or a whale, that thou hast enclosed me in a prison?
    • 13   If I say: My bed shall comfort me, and I shall be relieved, speaking with myself on my couch:
    • 14   Thou wilt frighten me with dreams, and terrify me with visions.
    • 15   So that my soul rather chooseth hanging, and my bones death.
    • 16   I have done with hope, I shall now live no longer: spare me, for my days are nothing.
    • 17   What is a man, that thou shouldst magnify him or why dost thou set thy heart upon him?
    • 18   Thou visitest him early in the morning, and thou provest him suddenly.
    • 19   How long wilt thou not spare me, nor suffer me to swallow down my spittle?
    • 20   I have sinned: what shall I do to thee, O keeper of men? why hast thou set me opposite to thee. and am I become burdensome to myself?
    • 21   Why dost thou not remove my sin, and why dost thou not take away my iniquity? Behold now I shall sleep in the dust: and if thou seek me in the morning, I shall not be.
