Job 7:17

Modern King James Version

What is man, that You should magnify him, and that You should set Your heart on him,

See the chapter Copy

But one testified in a certain place, saying, "What is man, that You are mindful of him; or the son of man, that You visit him?

what is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man, that You visit him?

O Jehovah, what is man that You take knowledge of him! Or the son of man, that You esteem him?

Am I like the sea, or a whale, that You set a watch over me?

After whom has the king of Israel come out? After whom do you pursue? After a dead dog? After a flea?

Can a man be useful to God, as he who is wise may be useful to himself?

how much less man who is a maggot, and the son of man, who is a worm?

And You open Your eyes on such a one, and bring me into judgment with You.

For You have made him lack a little from God, and have crowned him with glory and honor.
