Job 7:6-10

International Children’s Bible

⁶ “My days go by faster than a weaver moves his tool.
    And they come to an end without hope.
⁷ Remember, God, that my life is only as long as a breath.
    My eyes will never see happy times again.
⁸ Those who see me now will see me no more.
    You will look for me, but I will be gone.
⁹ A cloud disappears and is gone.
    In the same way, a person who goes where the dead are does not return.
¹⁰ He will never come back to his house again.
    His place will not know him anymore.
