Jesus Is LORD

ASV Job

Chapter 7

7:1 Is there not a warfare to man upon earth?
And are not his days like the days of a hireling?
7:2 As a servant that earnestly desireth the shadow,
And as a hireling that looketh for his wages:
7:3 So am I made to possess months of misery,
And wearisome nights are appointed to me.
7:4 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.
7:5 My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust;
My skin closeth up, and breaketh out afresh.
7:6 My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle,
And are spent without hope.
7:7 Oh remember that my life is a breath:
Mine eye shall no more see good.
7:8 The eye of him that seeth me shall behold me no more;
Thine eyes shall be upon me, but I shall not be.
7:9 As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away,
So he that goeth down to Sheol shall come up no more.
7:10 He shall return no more to his house,
Neither shall his place know him any more.
7:11 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.
7:12 Am I a sea, or a sea-monster,
That thou settest a watch over me?
7:13 When I say, My bed shall comfort me,
My couch shall ease my complaint;
7:14 Then thou scarest me with dreams,
And terrifiest me through visions:
7:15 So that my soul chooseth strangling,
And death rather than these my bones.
7:16 I loathe my life; I would not live alway:
Let me alone; for my days are vanity.
7:17 What is man, that thou shouldest magnify him,
And that thou shouldest set thy mind upon him,
7:18 And that thou shouldest visit him every morning,
And try him every moment?
7:19 How long wilt thou not look away from me,
Nor let me alone till I swallow down my spittle?
7:20 If I have sinned, what do I unto thee, O thou watcher of men?
Why hast thou set me as a mark for thee,
So that I am a burden to myself?
7:21 And why dost thou not pardon my transgression, and take away mine iniquity?
For now shall I lie down in the dust;
And thou wilt seek me diligently, but I shall not be.
