Job 7




noyes@Job:7:1 @ Is there not a war–service for man on the earth? Are not his days as the days of a hireling?

noyes@Job:7:2 @ As a servant panteth for the shade, And as a hireling looketh for his wages,

noyes@Job:7:3 @ So am I made to possess months of affliction, And wearisome nights are appointed for me.

noyes@Job:7:4 @ If I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? And I am full of restlessness until the dawning of the day.

noyes@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is clothed with worms, and clods of dust; My skin is broken and become loathsome.

noyes@Job:7:6 @ My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle; They pass away without hope.

noyes@Job:7:7 @ O remember that my life is a breath; That mine eye shall no more see good!

noyes@Job:7:8 @ The eye of him that hath seen me shall see me no more; Thine eyes shall look for me, but I shall not be.

noyes@Job:7:9 @ As the cloud dissolveth and wasteth away, So he that goeth down to the grave shall arise no more;

noyes@Job:7:10 @ No more shall he return to his house, And his dwelling–place shall know him no more.

noyes@Job:7:11 @ 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.

noyes@Job:7:12 @ Am I a sea, or a sea–monster, That thou settest a watch over me?

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

noyes@Job:7:14 @ Then thou scarest me with dreams, And terrifiest me with visions;

noyes@Job:7:15 @ So that my soul chooseth strangling, Yea, death, rather than these my bones.

noyes@Job:7:16 @ I am wasting away; I shall not live alway: Let me alone, for my days are a vapor!

noyes@Job:7:17 @ What is man, that thou shouldst make great account him, And fix thy mind upon him?––

noyes@Job:7:18 @ That thou shouldst visit him every morning, And prove him every moment?

noyes@Job:7:19 @ How long ere thou wilt look away from me, And let me alone, till I have time to breathe?

noyes@Job:7:20 @ If I have sinned, what have I done to thee, O thou watcher of men! Why hast thou set me up as thy mark, So that I have become a burden to myself?

noyes@Job:7:21 @ And why dost thou not pardon my transgression, And take away mine iniquity? (note:)(7:22)(:note) For soon shall I sleep in the dust; And, though thou seek me diligently, I shall not be.
