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
New King James Version
18 ‘Why(A) then have You brought me out of the womb?
Oh, that I had perished and no eye had seen me!
19 I would have been as though I had not been.
I would have been carried from the womb to the grave.
20 (B)Are not my days few?
Cease! (C)Leave me alone, that I may take a little comfort,
21 Before I go to the place from which I shall not return,
(D)To the land of darkness (E)and the shadow of death,
22 A land as dark as darkness itself,
As the shadow of death, without any order,
Where even the light is like darkness.’ ”
