Job 7:11-16
21st Century King James Version
11 Therefore I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
12 Am I a sea, or a whale, that Thou settest a watch over me?
13 When I say, ‘My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint,’
14 then Thou scarest me with dreams and terrifiest me through visions,
15 so that my soul chooseth strangling, and death rather than my life.
16 I loathe it; I would not live always. Let me alone, for my days are vanity.

11 “Therefore I will not keep silent;(A)
I will speak out in the anguish(B) of my spirit,
I will complain(C) in the bitterness of my soul.(D)
12 Am I the sea,(E) or the monster of the deep,(F)
that you put me under guard?(G)
13 When I think my bed will comfort me
and my couch will ease my complaint,(H)
14 even then you frighten me with dreams
and terrify(I) me with visions,(J)
15 so that I prefer strangling and death,(K)
rather than this body of mine.(L)
16 I despise my life;(M) I would not live forever.(N)
Let me alone;(O) my days have no meaning.(P)
