Job 7:11-21

11ThereforeH1571 IH589 will notH3808 restrainH2820 my mouthH6310; I will speakH1696 in the anguishH6862 of my spiritH7307; I will complainH7878 in the bitternessH4751 of my soulH5315.12Am IH589 the seaH3220, orH518 the monster of the deepH8577, thatH3588 You must keep me underH7760H5921 guardH4929?13WhenH3588 I thinkH559 my bedH6210 will comfort meH5162 and my couchH4904 will easeH5375 my complaintH7879,14then You frighten meH2865 with dreamsH2472 and terrify meH1204 with visionsH2384,15so that IH5315 would preferH977 stranglingH4267 and deathH4194 over my life in this bodyH6106.16I loatheH3988 my life! I would notH3808 liveH2421 foreverH5769. Leave me aloneH2308H4480, forH3588 my daysH3117 are but a breathH1892.

17WhatH4100 is manH582 thatH3588 You should exalt himH1431,thatH3588 You should setH7896 Your heartH3820 upon himH413,18that You attend to himH6485 every morningH1242,and test himH974 every momentH7281?19Will You neverH4100H3808 look awayH8159 from meH4480,orH3808 leave me aloneH7503 toH5704 swallowH1104 my spittleH7536?20If I have sinnedH2398, whatH4100 have I doneH6466 to You,O watcherH5341 of mankindH120?WhyH4100 have You made meH7760 Your targetH4645,so that I amH1961 a burdenH4853 to YouH59211?21WhyH4100 do You notH3808 pardonH5375 my transgressionH6588and take awayH5674 my iniquityH5771?ForH3588 soonH6258 I will lie downH7901 in the dustH6083;You will seek meH7836, but I will be no moreH369.”
