Job 3:20-26 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

20. “Why does he give light to one in misery and life to those bitter of soul,

21. who wait for death, but it does not come, and search for it more than for treasures,

22. who rejoice exceedingly, and they are glad when they find the grave?

23. Why does he give light to a man whose way is hidden, and God has fenced him in all around?

24. For my sighing comes before my bread, and my groanings gush forth like water

25. because the dread that I feel has come upon me, and what I feared befalls me.

26. I am not at ease, and I am not at peace, and I do not have rest, thus turmoil has come.”
