Job 17:13-16

13If I hope for the grave to be my home, if I spread out my bed in darkness,

14If I cry to corruption, ‘You are my father,’ and to the worm, ‘My Mother,’ or ‘My sister,’

15where then is my hope? And my hope, who sees it?

16Will it go down to the barred gates of death? Will we descend together into the dust?”
