Job 10:8-12
1599 Geneva Bible
8 Thine [a]hands have made me, and fashioned me wholly round about, and wilt thou destroy me?
9 Remember, I pray thee, that thou hast made me as [b]the clay, and wilt thou bring me into dust again?
10 Hast thou not poured me out as milk? and turned me to curds like cheese?
11 Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh, and joined me together with bones and sinews.
12 Thou hast given me life, and [c]grace: and the [d]visitation hath preserved my spirit.
