New Testament

Job 10:13-22 Modern English Version (MEV)

13. “These things You have hid in Your heart.I know that this is with You.

14. If I have sinned, then You would watchme,and You would not acquit me from my iniquity.

15. If I am wicked, woe unto me;and if I am righteous, yet will I not lift up my head.I am full of shame;look at my affliction!

16. For if my head is lifted up, You would hunt me like a lion,and again You show Yourself marvelous to me.

17. You renew Your witnesses against meand increase Your indignation upon me.Your troops come against me.

18. “Why then did You bring me forth out of the womb?Oh, that I had died, and no eye had seenme!

19. I should have been as though I had not been;I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.

20. Are not my days few? Stop then,and leave me alone that I may cheer up a little,

21. before I go and do not return,even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death,

22. a land of darkness, as darkness itself;and of the shadow of death, without any order,and where the light is as thick darkness.”
