Job 17:10-16
1599 Geneva Bible
10 All [a]you therefore turn you, and come now, and I shall not find one wise among you.
11 My days are past, mine enterprises are broken, and the thoughts of mine heart
12 Have changed the [b]night for the day, and the light that approached, for darkness.
13 Though I hope, [c]yet the grave shall be mine house, and I shall make my bed in the dark.
14 I shall say to corruption, Thou art my [d]father, and to the worm, Thou art my mother and my sister.
15 Where is then now mine hope? or who shall consider the thing that I hoped for?
16 [e]They shall go down into the bottom of the pit: surely it shall lie together in the dust.
