Job 3:17-22

17There the wicked cease from raging, And there the 1weary are at 2rest.18The prisoners are at ease together; They do not hear the voice of the taskmaster.19The small and the great are there, And the slave is free from his master.

20“Why is 3light given to one burdened with grief, And life to the bitter of soul,21Who 45long for death, but there is none, And dig for it more than for 6hidden treasures;22Who are filled with jubilation, And rejoice when they find the grave?
