Job 17:12-14

International Children’s Bible

¹² These men think night is day.
    When it is dark, they say, ‘Light is near.’
¹³ It might be that the only home I hope for is where the dead are.
    I might spread out my bed in darkness.
¹⁴ I might say to the grave, ‘You are my father.’
    And I might say to the worm, ‘You are my mother’ or ‘You are my sister.’
