Job 7:1-5

Legacy Standard Bible

7 “^[a]Is not man ^(A)conscripted to labor on earth,
And are not his days like the days of ^(B)a hired man?
² As a slave who pants for the shade,
And as a hired man who eagerly hopes for his wages,
³ So am I apportioned months of worthlessness,
And ^(C)nights of trouble are appointed me.
⁴ If I ^(D)lie down I say,
‘When shall I arise?’
But the twilight continues,
And I am saturated with tossing until dawn.
⁵ My ^(E)flesh is clothed with worms and a crust of dirt;
My skin scabs over and flows out again.
