mkjv@Job:7:1 @ [Is there] not a warfare to man on earth? [Are] not his days also like the days of a hireling?

mkjv@Job:7:2 @ As a servant earnestly desires the shadow, and as a hireling looks for his wages,

mkjv@Job:7:3 @ so I am made to possess months of vanity, and weary nights are appointed to me.

mkjv@Job:7:4 @ When I lie down, I say, When shall I rise? But the night is long, and I am full of tossing to and fro until the dawning of the day.

mkjv@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin is broken and has run [afresh].

mkjv@Job:7:6 @ My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are ended without hope.

mkjv@Job:7:7 @ Remember that my life [is] a breath; my eye shall no more see good.

mkjv@Job:7:8 @ The eye of him who has seen me shall see me no [more]; Your eyes [are] on me, and I [am] gone.

mkjv@Job:7:9 @ [As] the cloud falls and vanishes away, so he who goes down to the grave shall come up no [more].

mkjv@Job:7:10 @ He shall return no more to his house, nor shall his place know him any more.

mkjv@Job:7:11 @ Therefore I will not hold my mouth; I will speak in the trouble of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.

mkjv@Job:7:12 @ Am I like the sea, or a whale, that You set a watch over me?

mkjv@Job:7:13 @ When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint,

mkjv@Job:7:14 @ then You scare me with dreams, and terrify me with visions;

mkjv@Job:7:15 @ so that my soul chooses strangling, death rather than my life.

mkjv@Job:7:16 @ I despise [them]; I will not live always; let me alone, for my days [are] vanity.

mkjv@Job:7:17 @ What [is] man, that You should magnify him, and that You should set Your heart on him,

mkjv@Job:7:18 @ and visit him every morning, trying him every moment?

mkjv@Job:7:19 @ Until when will You look away from me, nor let me alone until I swallow down my spittle?

mkjv@Job:7:20 @ I have sinned. What shall I do to You, O Watcher of men? Why have You set me as a target for You, so that I am a burden to myself?

mkjv@Job:7:21 @ And why do You not pardon my transgression, and take away my iniquity? For now I shall sleep in the dust, and You shall seek me in the morning, but I [shall] not be.
