Job 7:3

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition 2021

so I am allotted months of emptiness, and nights of misery are apportioned to me.

See the chapter Copy

I am weary with my moaning; every night I flood my bed with tears; I drench my couch with my weeping.

I saw all the deeds that are done under the sun, and see, all is vanity and a chasing after wind.

You have made my days a few handbreadths, and my lifetime is as nothing in your sight. Surely everyone stands as a mere breath. Selah

“O that I were as in the months of old, as in the days when God watched over me,

Surely now God has worn me out; he has made desolate all my company.

Like a slave who longs for the shadow, and like laborers who look for their wages,

For he will complete what he appoints for me, and many such things are in his mind.

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