Job 7:12-16

12Am I the sea, or 1the sea monster, That You set a guard over me?13If I say, ‘2My couch will comfort me, My bed 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 only a breath.
