Job 7:11-16

International Standard Version

¹¹ “In addition, I won’t keep my opinion^[a] to myself;
    I’ll speak from my distressed spirit;
        I’ll complain with my bitter soul.
¹² Am I the sea, or a sea monster,
    that you keep watching me?
¹³ For I’ve said, ‘My bed will comfort me;
    my couch will ease my burdens^[b] while I complain.’
¹⁴ But then you scared me with dreams;
    you terrified me with visions.
¹⁵ I would rather die by strangulation
    than continue living.^[c]
16 I hate the thought of living forever!
    Leave me alone, because my days are pointless.”
