Job 3:11-22

11Wherefore did I not dieH4191 from the wombH990, — comeH3318 forthH3318 from the bellyH990 and expireH1478?

12WhyH4100 did the knees meetH6923 me? and wherefore 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 buildH1129 desolate placesH2723 for themselves,

15Or with princesH8269 who had goldH2091, who filledH4390 their housesH1004 with silverH3701;

16Or as a hiddenH2934 untimely birth I had not beenH1961; as infants that have not seenH7200 the lightH216.

17There the wickedH7563 ceaseH2308 from troubling; and there the wearied are at restH5117.

18The prisonersH615 togetherH3162 are at easeH7599; they hearH8085 not the voiceH6963 of the taskmasterH5065.

19The smallH6996 and greatH1419 are there, and the bondman freedH2670 from his masterH113.

20Wherefore is lightH216 givenH5414 to him that is in trouble, and lifeH5315 to those bitterH4751 of soulH5315,

21Who long for deathH4194, and it [cometh] not, and dig for it more than for hidden treasures;

22Who rejoiceH8055 even exultingly and are gladH8055 when they findH4672 the graveH6913? —
