Job 7:12-19

12Why do you have to watch me, God, like a guard? Do you think that I am a dangerous monster from the sea?

13When I lie down to sleep, I hope that my pain will be less.

14But even then you give me dreams that frighten me. I have visions which make me very afraid.

15I would like someone to stop me breathing! Death would be better than life.

16My life is useless. I do not want to live for ever. My life is only a short breath. So let me be alone.

17Why do you think that people are important? Why do you watch us so carefully?

18You never leave us alone. You test us every moment of every day.

19You never look the other way. You never leave me alone, even for a moment.
