Job 7:3

Modern English Version

so I have been assigned months of futility, and nights of trouble have been appointed to me.

See the chapter Copy

But now He has made me weary; You have made desolate all my company.

For He performs what is appointed for me, and many such things are with Him.

“Oh, that I were as in months past, as in the days when God watched over me;

Like a servant, he longs for the shade, and like a hired worker, he looks for his wages,

Behold, You have made my days as a few handbreadths, and my age is as nothing before You. Surely every man at his best is as a mere breath.” Selah

I am weary with my groaning; all night I flood my bed with tears; I drench my couch with my weeping.

My eyes waste away from grief; they grow weak because of all my enemies.

I have seen everything that is done under the sun; and behold, everything is vanity and like chasing the wind.
