Job 7 Verses
1
|
"Is not all human life a struggle? Our lives are like that of a hired hand, |
2
|
like a worker who longs for the shade, like a servant waiting to be paid. |
3
|
I, too, have been assigned months of futility, long and weary nights of misery. |
4
|
Lying in bed, I think, 'When will it be morning?' But the night drags on, and I toss till dawn. |
5
|
My body is covered with maggots and scabs. My skin breaks open, oozing with pus. |
6
|
"My days fly faster than a weaver's shuttle. They end without hope. |
7
|
O God, remember that my life is but a breath, and I will never again feel happiness. |
8
|
You see me now, but not for long. You will look for me, but I will be gone. |
9
|
Just as a cloud dissipates and vanishes, those who die will not come back. |
10
|
They are gone forever from their home-- never to be seen again. |
11
|
"I cannot keep from speaking. I must express my anguish. My bitter soul must complain. |
12
|
Am I a sea monster or a dragon that you must place me under guard? |
13
|
I think, 'My bed will comfort me, and sleep will ease my misery,' |
14
|
but then you shatter me with dreams and terrify me with visions. |
15
|
I would rather be strangled-- rather die than suffer like this. |
16
|
I hate my life and don't want to go on living. Oh, leave me alone for my few remaining days. |
17
|
"What are people, that you should make so much of us, that you should think of us so often? |
18
|
For you examine us every morning and test us every moment. |
19
|
Why won't you leave me alone, at least long enough for me to swallow! |
20
|
If I have sinned, what have I done to you, O watcher of all humanity? Why make me your target? Am I a burden to you? |
21
|
Why not just forgive my sin and take away my guilt? For soon I will lie down in the dust and die. When you look for me, I will be gone." |
