New Testament

Job 7:9-16 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

9. As the cloud is consumed and vanishes away: so he that goes down to the grave shall come up no more.

10. He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more.

11. Therefore 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 a sea, or a sea monster, that you set a watch over me?

13. When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint;

14. Then you scare me with dreams, and terrify me through visions:

15. So that my soul chooses strangling, and death rather than my life.

16. I loathe it; I would not live always: let me alone; for my days are vanity.
