Job Continues: A Plea to God
10 “I (A)loathe my life;
I will give free utterance to my (B)complaint;
I will speak in (C)the bitterness of my soul.
Lamentations 3:19-20
English Standard Version
19 (A)Remember my affliction and my wanderings,
(B)the wormwood and (C)the gall!
20 My soul continually remembers it
(D)and is bowed down within me.
Psalm 77:2-9
English Standard Version
2 (A)In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord;
in (B)the night my (C)hand is stretched out without wearying;
my soul (D)refuses to be comforted.
3 When I remember God, I (E)moan;
when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah
4 You hold my eyelids open;
I am so (F)troubled that I cannot speak.
5 I consider (G)the days of old,
the years long ago.
6 I said,[a] “Let me remember my (H)song in the night;
let me (I)meditate in my heart.”
Then my spirit made a diligent search:
7 “Will the Lord (J)spurn forever,
and never again (K)be favorable?
8 Has his steadfast love forever ceased?
Are his (L)promises at an end for all time?
9 (M)Has God forgotten to be gracious?
(N)Has he in anger shut up his compassion?” Selah
