Job 7:6-10
Christian Standard Bible
6 My days pass more swiftly than a weaver’s shuttle;
they come to an end without hope.(A)
7 Remember that my life is but a breath.
My eye will never again see anything good.(B)
8 The eye of anyone who looks on me
will no longer see me.
Your eyes will look for me, but I will be gone.(C)
9 As a cloud fades away and vanishes,
so the one who goes down to Sheol(D) will never rise again.
10 He will never return to his house;
his hometown will no longer remember[a] him.(E)

Job 7:6-10
Common English Bible
6 My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle;
they reach their end without hope.[a]
7 Remember that my life is wind;
my eyes won’t see pleasure again.
8 The eye that sees me now will no longer look on me;
your eyes will be on me, and I won’t exist.
9 A cloud breaks apart and moves on—
like the one who descends to the grave[b] and won’t rise,
10 won’t return home again,
won’t be recognized in town anymore.
