New Testament

Job 10:18-22 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

18. Why did you lead me out of the womb? If only I had been consumed, so that no eye would ever see me!

19. I should have been as if I had not been: transferred from the womb to the tomb.

20. Will not my few days be completed soon? Release me, therefore, so that I may lament my sorrows a little,

21. before I depart and return no more to a land that is dark and covered with the fog of death,

22. a land of misery and darkness, where the shadow of death, and nothing else but everlasting horror, dwells.
