Job 10:18-22
Authorized (King James) Version
18 Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb?
Oh that I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me!
19 I should have been as though I had not been;
I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.
20 Are not my days few?
cease then, and let me alone,
that I may take comfort a little,
21 before I go whence I shall not return,
even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;
22 a land of darkness, as darkness itself;
and of the shadow of death, without any order,
and where the light is as darkness.
Job 10:18-22
American Standard Version
18 Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb?
I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me.
19 I should have been as though I had not been;
I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.
20 Are not my days few? [a]cease then,
And let me alone, that I may [b]take comfort a little,
21 Before I go whence I shall not return,
Even to the land of darkness and of the shadow of death;
22 The land dark as [c]midnight,
The land of the shadow of death, without any order,
And where the light is as [d]midnight.
