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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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