New American Standard Bible 1995

Job 7:12-16

12Am I the sea, or 1the sea monster, That You set a guard over me?13If I say, ‘2My bed will comfort me, My couch will 3ease my complaint,’14Then You frighten me with dreams And terrify me by visions;15So that my soul would choose suffocation, Death rather than my 4pains.16I 5 6waste away; I will not live forever. Leave me alone, 7for my days are but a breath.
