Job 7 KJV — Job 7

1 Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also like the days of an hireling? KJV — Job 7:1

2 As a servant earnestly desireth the shadow, and as an hireling looketh for the reward of his work: KJV — Job 7:2

3 So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed to me. KJV — Job 7:3

4 When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am full of tossings to and fro unto the dawning of the day. KJV — Job 7:4

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

6 My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle, and are spent without hope. KJV — Job 7:6

7 O remember that my life is wind: mine eye shall no more see good. KJV — Job 7:7

8 The eye of him that hath seen me shall see me no more: thine eyes are upon me, and I am not. KJV — Job 7:8

9 As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more. KJV — Job 7:9

10 He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more. KJV — Job 7:10

11 Therefore I will not refrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul. KJV — Job 7:11

12 Am I a sea, or a whale, that thou settest a watch over me? KJV — Job 7:12

13 When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint; KJV — Job 7:13

14 Then thou scarest me with dreams, and terrifiest me through visions: KJV — Job 7:14

15 So that my soul chooseth strangling, and death rather than my life. KJV — Job 7:15

16 I loathe it; I would not live alway: let me alone; for my days are vanity. KJV — Job 7:16

17 What is man, that thou shouldest magnify him? and that thou shouldest set thine heart upon him? KJV — Job 7:17

18 And that thou shouldest visit him every morning, and try him every moment? KJV — Job 7:18

19 How long wilt thou not depart from me, nor let me alone till I swallow down my spittle? KJV — Job 7:19

20 I have sinned; what shall I do unto thee, O thou preserver of men? why hast thou set me as a mark against thee, so that I am a burden to myself? KJV — Job 7:20

21 And why dost thou not pardon my transgression, and take away mine iniquity? for now shall I sleep in the dust; and thou shalt seek me in the morning, but I shall not be. KJV — Job 7:21
