Job 7:11-16

11“Therefore 1I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit, I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.12Am I the sea, or 2the sea monster, That You set a guard over me?13If I say, ‘3My couch will comfort me, My bed will 4ease my complaint,’14Then You frighten me with dreams, And terrify me by visions,15So that my soul would choose suffocation, Death rather than my 5pains.16I 6 7waste away; I will not live forever. Leave me alone, 8for my days are only a breath.
