Job 30:27-31
21st Century King James Version
27 My bowels boiled, and rested not; the days of affliction came upon me.
28 I went mourning without the sun; I stood up, and I cried in the congregation.
29 I am a brother to dragons, and a companion to owls.
30 My skin is black upon me, and my bones are burned with heat.
31 My harp also is turned to mourning, and my flute into the voice of them that weep.

Job 30:27-31
American Standard Version
27 My heart is troubled, and resteth not;
Days of affliction are come upon me.
28 I go [a]mourning without the sun:
I stand up in the assembly, and cry for help.
29 I am a brother to jackals,
And a companion to ostriches.
30 My skin is black, and falleth from me,
And my bones are burned with heat.
31 Therefore is my harp turned to mourning,
And my pipe into the voice of them that weep.
