Job 17:10-16
Lexham English Bible
10 But[a] all of you must return[b]—please come![c]
But[d] I shall not find a wise person among you.
11 “My days are past; my plans are broken down—
even the desires of my heart.
12 They make night into day,
saying, ‘Light is near to darkness.’[e]
13 If I hope for Sheol as my house,
if I spread my couch in the darkness,
14 if I call to the pit, ‘You are my father,’
to the maggot, ‘You are my mother or[f] my sister,’
15 where[g] then is my hope?
And who will see my hope?[h]
16 Will they go down to the bars of Sheol?
Or shall we descend together into the dust?”

Job 17:10-16
Common English Bible
10 But you can bring all of them again,
and I won’t find a wise one among you.
11 My days have passed;
my goals are destroyed, my heart’s desires.
12 They turn night into day;
light is near because of the darkness.
13 If I hope for the underworld[a] as my dwelling,
lay out my bed in darkness,
14 I’ve called corruption “my father,”
the worm, “my mother and sister.”
15 Where then is my hope?
My hope—who can see it?
16 Will they go down with me to the underworld;[b]
will we descend together to the dust?
