Job 7:2-4

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

² Like a slave who longs for the shadow,
    and like a hireling who looks for his wages,
³ so I am allotted months of emptiness,
    and nights of misery are apportioned to me.
⁴ When I lie down I say, ‘When shall I arise?’
    But the night is long,
    and I am full of tossing till the dawn.
