Job 7:12-16

12Am I the sea, or a sea monster, that you set a guard over me?

13When I say, 'My bed will comfort me, my couch will ease my complaint,'

14then you scare me with dreams and terrify me with visions,

15so that I would choose strangling and death rather than my bones.

16I loathe my life; I would not live forever. Leave me alone, for my days are a breath.
