Job 7:11-16
New International Version
11 “Therefore I will not keep silent;(A)
I will speak out in the anguish(B) of my spirit,
I will complain(C) in the bitterness of my soul.(D)
12 Am I the sea,(E) or the monster of the deep,(F)
that you put me under guard?(G)
13 When I think my bed will comfort me
and my couch will ease my complaint,(H)
14 even then you frighten me with dreams
and terrify(I) me with visions,(J)
15 so that I prefer strangling and death,(K)
rather than this body of mine.(L)
16 I despise my life;(M) I would not live forever.(N)
Let me alone;(O) my days have no meaning.(P)
Job 7:11-16
New American Standard Bible
11 “Therefore (A)I will not restrain my mouth;
I will speak in the anguish of my spirit,
I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
12 Am I the sea, or (B)the sea monster,
That You set a guard over me?
13 If I say, ‘(C)My couch will comfort me,
My bed will [a]ease my complaint,’
14 Then You frighten me with dreams,
And terrify me by visions,
15 So that my soul would choose suffocation,
Death rather than my [b]pains.
16 I [c](D)waste away; I will not live forever.
Leave me alone, (E)for my days are only a breath.
