Job 10:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
10 1 Job is weary of his life, and setteth out his fragility before God. 20 He desireth him to stay his hand. 22 A description of death.
1 My soul is cut off [a]though I live: I will leave my [b]complaint upon myself, and will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
2 I will say unto God, [c]Condemn me not: show me, wherefore thou contendest with me.
3 Thinkest thou it [d]good to oppress me, and to cast off the [e]labor of thine hands, and to favor the [f]counsel of the wicked?

King James Version
10 My soul is weary of my life; I will leave my complaint upon myself; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
2 I will say unto God, Do not condemn me; shew me wherefore thou contendest with me.
3 Is it good unto thee that thou shouldest oppress, that thou shouldest despise the work of thine hands, and shine upon the counsel of the wicked?
