Job:10

Seeker Overlay ON

* My soul loathes my life ; I will leave my complaint on myself ; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul . * I will say to God , Do not condemn me ; make me know why You contend with me . * Is it good to You that You should crush , that You should despise the work of Your hands , and You shine on the counsel of the wicked ? * Have You eyes of flesh ; or do You see as a man sees ? * Are Your days as the days of man ? Or your years like the days of man , * that You seek out my iniquity , and search for my sin ? * You know that I am not wicked ; and there is no one delivering out of Your hand . * Your hands have made me and shaped me together all around ; yet You destroy me . * Remember , I beseech You , that You have formed me as clay ; and will You bring me to dust again ? * Did You not pour me out like milk ; yea , curdled me like cheese ? * You clothed me with skin and flesh , and knitted me with bones and sinews . * You have made me have life and favor , and Your providence has kept my spirit . * And these You have hidden in Your heart ; I know that this was with You . * If I sin , then You watch me ; and You will not acquit me from my guilt . * If I am wrong , woe to me ! And if I am righteous , I will not lift up my head , being filled with shame and seeing my pain . * And if it rise , You would hunt me as a lion ; and again You show Yourself wonderful in me . * You renew Your witnesses against me , and increase Your anger with me ; changes and warfare are with me . * Why then did You bring me from the womb ? I would have died , and no eye seen me . * I would have been as though I had never been , carried from the womb to the grave . * Are not my days few ? Then cease and set me alone , that I may take a little comfort * before I go ; and I shall not return ; to the land of darkness , and the shadow of death ; * a land of obscurity , the darkness of the shadow of death , and without any order ; even the shining is as darkness .
