Job 7

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

2 As a servant earnestly desires the shadow, and as an hireling looks for the reward of his work:AKJV — Job 7:2

3 So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed to me.AKJV — 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 to the dawning of the day.AKJV — Job 7:4

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

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

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

8 The eye of him that has seen me shall see me no more: your eyes are on me, and I am not.AKJV — Job 7:8

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

10 He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more.AKJV — 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.AKJV — Job 7:11

12 Am I a sea, or a whale, that you set a watch over me?AKJV — Job 7:12

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

14 Then you scare me with dreams, and terrify me through visions:AKJV — Job 7:14

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

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

17 What is man, that you should magnify him? and that you should set your heart on him?AKJV — Job 7:17

18 And that you should visit him every morning, and try him every moment?AKJV — Job 7:18

19 How long will you not depart from me, nor let me alone till I swallow down my spittle?AKJV — Job 7:19

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

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