Job 7

[Is there] not an appointed time
<06635>
to man
<0582>
upon earth
<0776>_?
[are not] his days
<03117>
also like the days
<03117>
of an hireling
<07916>_?
{an appointed...: or, a warfare}
As a servant
<05650>
earnestly desireth
<07602> (8799)
the shadow
<06738>_,
and as an hireling
<07916>
looketh
<06960> (8762)
for [the reward of] his work
<06467>_:
{earnestly...: Heb. gapeth after}
So am I made to possess
<05157> (8717)
months
<03391>
of vanity
<07723>_,
and wearisome
<05999>
nights
<03915>
are appointed
<04487> (8765)
to me.
When I lie down
<07901> (8804)_,
I say
<0559> (8804)_,
When shall I arise
<06965> (8799)_,
and the night
<06153>
be gone
<04059>_?
and I am full
<07646> (8804)
of tossings to and fro
<05076>
unto the dawning of the day
<05399>_.
{the night...: Heb. the evening be measured?}
My flesh
<01320>
is clothed
<03847> (8804)
with worms
<07415>
and clods
<01487>
of dust
<06083>_;
my skin
<05785>
is broken
<07280> (8804)_,
and become loathsome
<03988> (8735)_.
My days
<03117>
are swifter
<07043> (8804)
than a weaver's shuttle
<0708>_,
and are spent
<03615> (8799)
without
<0657>
hope
<08615>_.
O remember
<02142> (8798)
that my life
<02416>
[is] wind
<07307>_:
mine eye
<05869>
shall no more
<07725> (8799)
see
<07200> (8800)
good
<02896>_.
{shall...: Heb. shall not return} {see: to see, that is, to enjoy}
The eye
<05869>
of him that hath seen
<07210>
me shall see
<07789> (8799)
me no [more]: thine eyes
<05869>
[are] upon me, and I [am] not. {I am...: that is, I can live no longer}
[As] the cloud
<06051>
is consumed
<03615> (8804)
and vanisheth away
<03212> (8799)_:
so he that goeth down
<03381> (8802)
to the grave
<07585>
shall come up
<05927> (8799)
no [more].
He shall return
<07725> (8799)
no more to his house
<01004>_,
neither shall his place
<04725>
know
<05234> (8686)
him any more.
Therefore I will not refrain
<02820> (8799)
my mouth
<06310>_;
I will speak
<01696> (8762)
in the anguish
<06862>
of my spirit
<07307>_;
I will complain
<07878> (8799)
in the bitterness
<04751>
of my soul
<05315>_.
[Am] I a sea
<03220>_,
or a whale
<08577>_,
that thou settest
<07760> (8799)
a watch
<04929>
over me?
When I say
<0559> (8804)_,
My bed
<06210>
shall comfort
<05162> (8762)
me, my couch
<04904>
shall ease
<05375> (8799)
my complaint
<07879>_;
Then thou scarest
<02865> (8765)
me with dreams
<02472>_,
and terrifiest
<01204> (8762)
me through visions
<02384>_:
So that my soul
<05315>
chooseth
<0977> (8799)
strangling
<04267>_,
[and] death
<04194>
rather than my life
<06106>_.
{life: Heb. bones}
I loathe
<03988> (8804)
[it]; I would not live
<02421> (8799)
alway
<05769>_:
let me alone
<02308> (8798)_;
for my days
<03117>
[are] vanity
<01892>_.
What [is] man
<0582>_,
that thou shouldest magnify
<01431> (8762)
him? and that thou shouldest set
<07896> (8799)
thine heart
<03820>
upon him?
And [that] thou shouldest visit
<06485> (8799)
him every morning
<01242>_,
[and] try
<0974> (8799)
him every moment
<07281>_?
How long
<04100>
wilt thou not depart
<08159> (8799)
from me, nor let me alone
<07503> (8686)
till I swallow down
<01104> (8800)
my spittle
<07536>_?
I have sinned
<02398> (8804)_;
what shall I do
<06466> (8799)
unto thee, O thou preserver
<05341> (8802)
of men
<0120>_?
why hast thou set
<07760> (8804)
me as a mark
<04645>
against thee, so that I am a burden
<04853>
to myself?
And why dost thou not pardon
<05375> (8799)
my transgression
<06588>_,
and take away
<05674> (8686)
mine iniquity
<05771>_?
for now shall I sleep
<07901> (8799)
in the dust
<06083>_;
and thou shalt seek me in the morning
<07836> (8765)_,
but I [shall] not [be].
