Job 30:16-19
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
16 “And now my soul is poured out within me;
days of affliction have taken hold of me.(A)
17 The night racks my bones,
and the pain that gnaws me takes no rest.
18 With violence he seizes my garment;[a]
he grasps me by[b] the collar of my tunic.
19 He has cast me into the mire,
and I have become like dust and ashes.(B)
Job 30:16-19
New Living Translation
16 “And now my life seeps away.
Depression haunts my days.
17 At night my bones are filled with pain,
which gnaws at me relentlessly.
18 With a strong hand, God grabs my shirt.[a]
He grips me by the collar of my coat.
19 He has thrown me into the mud.
I’m nothing more than dust and ashes.
