Job 7:6-10
1599 Geneva Bible
6 My days are swifter than [a]a weaver’s shuttle, and they are spent without hope.
7 Remember that my life is but a wind, and that mine eye shall not return to see pleasure.
8 The eye that hath seen me, shall see me no more: thine eyes are upon me, and I shall be no longer.
9 [b]As the cloud vanisheth and goeth away, so he that goeth down to the grave, shall [c]come up no more.
10 He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him anymore.
