Job 7:12-19

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

13When I say, ‘My couch may give me comfort. My bed may help me bear my pain,’

14then you frighten me with dreams and terrify me with visions.

15My throat would rather be choked. My body  would prefer death ⌞to these dreams⌟.

16I hate my life; I do not want to live forever. Leave me alone because my days are so brief.

17“What is a mortal that you should make so much of him, that you should be concerned about him?

18⌞What is he⌟ that you should inspect him every morning and examine him every moment?

19Why don’t you stop looking at me long enough to let me swallow my spit?
