Job 3:20-26

20I am suffering very much. Why does God let me wake up each day? I am very upset, so why does God continue to let me live?

21People like me only want to die. But death does not come. They would rather die than find valuable gold.

22When their life finally finishes, they are very happy. They are happy to go into their graves.

23So why do I continue to live? God has stopped me moving forward in life. I cannot see which way to go.

24I am crying instead of eating. My tears pour out like a river of water.

25The things that frighten me most have happened to me.

26Because of all the trouble that has happened to me, I cannot rest. I have no peace in my mind.’
