Job:10

Seeker Overlay ON

* "I loathe my life ; I will give free utterance to my complaint ; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul . * I will say to God , Do not condemn me ; let me know why thou dost contend against me . * Does it seem good to thee to oppress , to despise the work of thy hands and favor the designs of the wicked ? * Hast thou eyes of flesh ? Dost thou see as man sees ? * Are thy days as the days of man , or thy years as man 's years , * that thou dost seek out my iniquity and search for my sin , * although thou knowest that I am not guilty , and there is none to deliver out of thy hand ? * Thy hands fashioned and made me ; and now thou dost turn about and destroy me . * Remember that thou hast made me of clay ; and wilt thou turn me to dust again ? * Didst thou not pour me out like milk and curdle me like cheese ? * Thou didst clothe me with skin and flesh , and knit me together with bones and sinews . * Thou hast granted me life and steadfast love ; and thy care has preserved my spirit . * Yet these things thou didst hide in thy heart ; I know that this was thy purpose . * If I sin , thou dost mark me , and dost not acquit me of my iniquity . * If I am wicked , woe to me ! If I am righteous , I cannot lift up my head , for I am filled with disgrace and look upon my affliction . * And if I lift myself up , thou dost hunt me like a lion , and again work wonders against me ; * thou dost renew thy witnesses against me , and increase thy vexation toward me ; thou dost bring fresh hosts against me . * "Why didst thou bring me forth from the womb ? Would that I had died before any eye had seen me , * and were as though I had not been , carried from the womb to the grave . * Are not the days of my life few ? Let me alone , that I may find a little comfort * before I go whence I shall not return , to the land of gloom and deep darkness , * the land of gloom and chaos , where light is as darkness ."
