Job 3:17-22

17There the wicked cease from troubling, and there the weary are at rest.

18There the prisoners are at ease together; they hear not the voice of the taskmaster.

19The small and the great are there, and the slave is free from his master.

20"Why is light given to him who is in misery, and life to the bitter in soul,

21who long for death, but it comes not, and dig for it more than for hidden treasures,

22who rejoice exceedingly and are glad when they find the grave?
