Job Continues: My Life Has No Hope

7"Has not man a hard service on earth, and are not his days like the days of a hired hand?H6635H582H776H3117H3117H7916
2Like a slave who longs for the shadow, and like a hired hand who looks for his wages,H5650H7602H6738H7916H6960H6467
3so I am allotted months of emptiness, and nights of misery are apportioned to me.H5157H3391H7723H5999H3915H4487
4When I lie down I say, 'When shall I arise?' But the night is long, and I am full of tossing till the dawn.H7901H559H6965H6153H4059H7646H5076H5399
5My flesh is clothed with worms and dirt; my skin hardens, then breaks out afresh.H1320H3847H7415H1487H6083H5785H7280H3988
6My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle and come to their end without hope.H3117H7043H708H3615H657H8615
7"Remember that my life is a breath; my eye will never again see good.H2142H2416H7307H5869H7725H7200H2896
8The eye of him who sees me will behold me no more; while your eyes are on me, I shall be gone.H5869H7210H7789H5869
9As the cloud fades and vanishes, so he who goes down to Sheol does not come up;H6051H3615H3212H3381H7585H5927
10he returns no more to his house, nor does his place know him anymore.H7725H1004H4725H5234
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.H2820H6310H1696H6862H7307H7878H4751H5315
12Am I the sea, or a sea monster, that you set a guard over me?H3220H8577H7760H4929
13When I say, 'My bed will comfort me, my couch will ease my complaint,'H559H6210H5162H4904H5375H7879
14then you scare me with dreams and terrify me with visions,H2865H2472H1204H2384
15so that I would choose strangling and death rather than my bones.H5315H977H4267H4194H6106
16I loathe my life; I would not live forever. Leave me alone, for my days are a breath.H3988H2421H5769H2308H3117H1892
17What is man, that you make so much of him, and that you set your heart on him,H582H1431H7896H3820
18visit him every morning and test him every moment?H6485H1242H974H7281
19How long will you not look away from me, nor leave me alone till I swallow my spit?H4100H8159H7503H1104H7536
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?H2398H6466H5341H120H7760H4645H4853
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."H5375H6588H5674H5771H7901H6083H7836
