Job 7:6-10
Christian Standard Bible
6 My days pass more swiftly than a weaver’s shuttle;
they come to an end without hope.(A)
7 Remember that my life is but a breath.
My eye will never again see anything good.(B)
8 The eye of anyone who looks on me
will no longer see me.
Your eyes will look for me, but I will be gone.(C)
9 As a cloud fades away and vanishes,
so the one who goes down to Sheol(D) will never rise again.
10 He will never return to his house;
his hometown will no longer remember[a] him.(E)

Job 7:6-10
International Standard Version
6 My days pass as swiftly as a hand-loom;
they come to their conclusion without hope.
7 Remember that my life is a breath;
my eyes won’t go back to seeing good things.[a]
8 The eyes of the one who sees me won’t see me anymore;
your eyes will look[b] for me
but I won’t be around![c]
9 As a cloud fades away and vanishes,
the one who descends to the afterlife[d] doesn’t return.[e]
10 He doesn’t return again to his house,
and his place won’t recognize him anymore.”
