Job 3:11-22
11WhyH4100 diedH4191 I not from the wombH990?WhyH4100 did I not give up the ghost when my mother bare me?12WhyH4100 did the knees receive me?Or whyH4100 the breastsH7699, that I should suckH3243?13For nowH6258 should I have lainH7901 downH7901 and been quietH8252;I should have slept; thenH227 had I been at restH5117,14With kingsH4428 and counsellors of the earthH776,Who builtH1129 up wasteH2723 placesH2723 for themselves;15Or with princesH8269 that had goldH2091,Who filledH4390 their housesH1004 with silverH3701:16Or as a hiddenH2934 untimely birth I had not beenH1961,As infants that never sawH7200 lightH216.17There the wickedH7563 ceaseH2308 from troubling;And there the weary are at restH5117.18There the prisonersH615 are at easeH7599 togetherH3162;They hearH8085 not the voiceH6963 of the taskmasterH5065.19The smallH6996 and the greatH1419 are there:And the servantH5650 is freeH2670 from his masterH113.20Wherefore is lightH216 givenH5414 to him that is in misery,And lifeH5315 unto the bitterH4751 in soulH5315;21Who long for deathH4194, but it cometh not,And dig for it more than for hid treasures;22Who rejoiceH8055 exceedingly,And are gladH8055, when they can findH4672 the graveH6913?
