# Job 7
|
|||
|
|
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
|
|||
|
|
1. “Has not man a hard service on earth, and are not his days like the days of a hired hand?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
|
|||
|
|
2. Like a slave who longs for the shadow, and like a hired hand who looks for his wages,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
|
|||
|
|
3. so I am allotted months of emptiness, and nights of misery are apportioned to me.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
|
|||
|
|
4. When I lie down I say, ‘When shall I arise?’ But the night is long, and I am full of tossing till the dawn.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
|
|||
|
|
5. My flesh is clothed with worms and dirt; my skin hardens, then breaks out afresh.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
|
|||
|
|
6. My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle and come to their end without hope.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
|
|||
|
|
7. “Remember that my life is a breath; my eye will never again see good.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
|
|||
|
|
8. The eye of him who sees me will behold me no more; while your eyes are on me, I shall be gone.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
|
|||
|
|
9. As the cloud fades and vanishes, so he who goes down to Sheol does not come up;
|
|||
|
|
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
|
|||
|
|
10. he returns no more to his house, nor does his place know him anymore.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
|
|||
|
|
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.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
|
|||
|
|
12. Am I the sea, or a sea monster, that you set a guard over me?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
|
|||
|
|
13. When I say, ‘My bed will comfort me, my couch will ease my complaint,’
|
|||
|
|
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
|
|||
|
|
14. then you scare me with dreams and terrify me with visions,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
|
|||
|
|
15. so that I would choose strangling and death rather than my bones.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
|
|||
|
|
16. I loathe my life; I would not live forever. Leave me alone, for my days are a breath.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="17" name="17"></a>
|
|||
|
|
17. What is man, that you make so much of him, and that you set your heart on him,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="18" name="18"></a>
|
|||
|
|
18. visit him every morning and test him every moment?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="19" name="19"></a>
|
|||
|
|
19. How long will you not look away from me, nor leave me alone till I swallow my spit?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="20" name="20"></a>
|
|||
|
|
20. If 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?
|
|||
|
|
<a id="21" name="21"></a>
|
|||
|
|
21. Why 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.”
