Job Continues to Explain How Devastated He Feels |
Job 10:1-22 Book of Job [in Smaller Chunks] |
My soul is [tired, to the point of death.] I will [complain freely] & I will speak [from] the bitterness of my soul. I will say to God, Don't condemn me. Therefore, show me [Your dispute] with me. |
Is it good to You, that you should oppress & despise [me,] the work of Your hands, [but You,] shine upon [those who give] wicked [advice?] Have You eyes of flesh? Or [do] You see [like] a man sees? Are Your days & years [like] a man's days, that You [ask about] & search after my iniquity & sin? |
You know that I'm not wicked & there's none [who] can deliver [me] out of Your hand. Your hands have made & fashioned me [all] together; yet You [still] destroy me. |
I [beg] You, remember that You have made me [like] the clay & will You will bring me [back] into the [dirt] again? Haven't You poured me out [like] milk & curdled me like [cottage] cheese? You have fenced me [in] with bones & [muscles] & clothed me with flesh & skin. |
You have granted me life & favor & Your [care] has preserved my spirit & You have hidden these things in Your heart. I know that this is [within] You. If I sin, then You [target] me & You won't [say] I'm [innocent] from my [sins.] |
If [I'm] wicked, woe to me & if [I'm] righteous, I [still] won't lift up my head. I am full of confusion. Therefore, You see my [suffering;] for it increases. You hunt me [like] a fierce lion & [still] You [continue to] show Yourself marvelous [to] me. You [resume] & increase Your indignation upon me. |
[These] changes & [discord] are against me. [Why] then have You brought me [out] of the womb? Oh, that I had given up the ghost & no eye had seen me! I should've been as though I had not [existed.] I should've been carried from the womb to the grave. |
Aren't my days few? Then, cease & let me alone, [so] that I may take a little comfort, before I go [where] I won't return [from,] even to the land of darkness & the shadow of death. A land of darkness, [like] darkness itself & of the shadow of death, without any order & the light [there] is [like] darkness. |
