Job 7

1 ♥ 📝 I s there not a warfare to man^H582 upon earth?^H776 And are not his days^H3117 like the days^H3117 of a hireling?^H7916

2 ♥ 📝 As a servant^H5650 that earnestly desireth^H7602 the shadow,^H6738 And as a hireling^H7916 that looketh^H6960 for his wages:^H6467

3 ♥ 📝 So am I made to possess^H5157 months^H3391 of misery,^H7723 And wearisome^H5999 nights^H3915 are appointed^H4487 to me.

4 ♥ 📝 When I lie down,^H7901 I say,^H559 When shall I arise,^H6965 and the night^H6153 be gone?^H4059 And I am full^H7646 of tossings to and fro^H5076 unto the dawning of the day.^H5399

5 ♥ 📝 My flesh^H1320 is clothed^H3847 with worms^H7415 and clods^H1487 of dust;^H6083 My skin^H5785 closeth up, and breaketh^H7280 out afresh.^H3988

6 ♥ 📝 My days^H3117 are swifter^H7043 than a weaver's shuttle,^H708 And are spent^H3615 without^H657 hope.^H8615

7 ♥ 📝 Oh remember^H2142 that my life^H2416 is a breath:^H7307 Mine eye^H5869 shall no more^H7725 see^H7200 good.^H2896

8 ♥ 📝 The eye^H5869 of him that seeth^H7210 me shall behold^H7789 me no more; Thine eyes^H5869 shall be upon me, but I shall not be.

9 ♥ 📝 As the cloud^H6051 is consumed^H3615 and vanisheth away,^H3212 So he that goeth down^H3381 to Sheol^H7585 shall come up^H5927 no more.

10 ♥ 📝 He shall return^H7725 no more to his house,^H1004 Neither shall his place^H4725 know^H5234 him any more.

11 ♥ 📝 Therefore I will not refrain^H2820 my mouth;^H6310 I will speak^H1696 in the anguish^H6862 of my spirit;^H7307 I will complain^H7878 in the bitterness^H4751 of my soul.^H5315

12 ♥ 📝 Am I a sea,^H3220 or a sea-monster,^H8577 That thou settest^H7760 a watch^H4929 over me?

13 ♥ 📝 When I say,^H559 My bed^H6210 shall comfort^H5162 me, My couch^H4904 shall ease^H5375 my complaint;^H7879

14 ♥ 📝 Then thou scarest^H2865 me with dreams,^H2472 And terrifiest^H1204 me through visions:^H2384

15 ♥ 📝 So that my soul^H5315 chooseth^H977 strangling,^H4267 And death^H4194 rather than [these] my bones.^H6106

16 ♥ 📝 I loathe^H3988 [my life]; I would not live^H2421 alway:^H5769 Let me alone;^H2308 for my days^H3117 are vanity.^H1892

17 ♥ 📝 What is man,^H582 that thou shouldest magnify^H1431 him, And that thou shouldest set^H7896 thy mind^H3820 upon him,

18 ♥ 📝 And that thou shouldest visit^H6485 him every morning,^H1242 And try^H974 him every moment?^H7281

19 ♥ 📝 How long^H4100 wilt thou not look away^H8159 from me, Nor let me alone^H7503 till I swallow down^H1104 my spittle?^H7536

20 ♥ 📝 If I have sinned,^H2398 what I unto thee, O thou watcher^H5341 of men?^H120 Why hast thou set^H7760 me as a mark^H4645 for thee, So that I am a burden^H4853 to myself?

21 ♥ 📝 And why dost thou not pardon^H5375 my transgression,^H6588 and take away^H5674 mine iniquity?^H5771 For now shall I lie down^H7901 in the dust;^H6083 And thou wilt seek me diligently,^H7836 but I shall not be.
