Job 10

American Standard Version

1My soulH5315 is weary of my lifeH5315; I will give free course to my complaintH7879; I will speakH1696 in the bitternessH4751 of my soulH5315.2I will sayH559 unto GodH433, Do not condemnH7561 me; Show me wherefore thou contendest with me.3Is it goodH2896 unto thee that thou shouldest oppressH6231, That thou shouldest despise the work of thy handsH3709, And shineH3313 upon the counselH6098 of the wickedH7563?4Hast thou eyesH5869 of fleshH1320? Or seest thou as man seeth?5Are thy daysH3117 as the daysH3117 of manH1397, Or thy yearsH8141 as man’s daysH3117,6That thou inquirest after mine iniquityH5771, And searchest after my sinH2403,7Although thou knowest that I am not wicked, And there is none that can deliverH5337 out of thy handH3027?8Thy handsH3027 have framed me and fashioned me TogetherH3162 roundH5439 about; yet thou dost destroy me.9RememberH2142, I beseech thee, that thou hast fashioned me as clay; And wilt thou bringH7725 me into dustH6083 again?10Hast thou not pouredH5413 me out as milkH2461, And curdled me like cheese?11Thou hast clothedH3847 me with skinH5785 and fleshH1320, And knit me together with bonesH6106 and sinewsH1517.12Thou hast granted me lifeH2416 and lovingkindness; And thy visitation hath preservedH8104 my spiritH7307.13Yet these thingsH428 thou didst hideH6845 in thy heartH3824; I knowH3045 that this is with thee:14If I sinH2398, then thou markest me, And thou wilt not acquitH5352 me from mine iniquityH5771.15If I be wicked, woeH480 unto me; And if I be righteousH6663, yet shall I not liftH5375 up my headH7218; Being filled with ignominy, And looking upon mine affliction.16And ifmy head exalt itself, thou huntest me as a lionH7826; And again thou showest thyself marvellous upon me.17Thou renewest thy witnessesH5707 against me, And increasest thine indignation upon me: ChangesH2487 and warfareH6635 are with me.18Wherefore then hast thou broughtH3318 me forthH3318 out of the wombH7358? I had given up the ghost, and no eyeH5869 had seenH7200 me.19I should have beenH1961 as though I had not beenH1961; I should have beenH1961 carried from the wombH990 to the graveH6913.20Are not my daysH3117 fewH4592? ceaseH2308 then, And let me alone, that I may take comfort a littleH4592,21Before I goH7725 whence I shall not returnH7725, Evento the landH776 of darknessH2822 and of the shadow of death;22The landH776 dark as midnight, The landH776of the shadow of death, without any order, And where the light is as midnight.
