God’s Word Translation
Job 7:17-21
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?
20If I sin, what can I ⌞possibly⌟ do to you since you insist on spying on people? Why do you make me your target? I’ve become a burden even to myself.
21Why don’t you forgive my disobedience and take away my sin? Soon I’ll lie down in the dust. Then you will search for me, but I’ll be gone!”
