Job -- 7

{1} Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also like the days of an hireling?
{2} As a servant earnestly desireth the shadow, and as an hireling looketh for the reward of his work:
{3} So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed to me.
{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.
{5} My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin is broken, and become loathsome.
{6} My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are spent without hope.
{7} O remember that my life is wind: mine eye shall no more see good.
{8} The eye of him that hath seen me shall see me no more: thine eyes are upon me, and I am not.
{9} As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more.
{10} He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more.
{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.
{12} Am I a sea, or a whale, that thou settest a watch over me?
{13} When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint;
{14} Then thou scarest me with dreams, and terrifiest me through visions:
{15} So that my soul chooseth strangling, and death rather than my life.
{16} I loathe it; I would not live alway: let me alone; for my days are vanity.
{17} What is man, that thou shouldest magnify him? and that thou shouldest set thine heart upon him?
{18} And that thou shouldest visit him every morning, and try him every moment?
{19} How long wilt thou not depart from me, nor let me alone till I swallow down my spittle?
{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?
{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.

Job -- 8

{1} Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,
{2} How long wilt thou speak these things? and how long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?
{3} Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?
{4} If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;
{5} If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;
{6} If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.
{7} Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.
{8} For inquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:
{9} (For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth are a shadow:)
{10} Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?
{11} Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water?
{12} Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth before any other herb.
{13} So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:
{14} Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's web.
{15} He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.
{16} He is green before the sun, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.
{17} His roots are wrapped about the heap, and seeth the place of stones.
{18} If he destroy him from his place, then it shall deny him, saying, I have not seen thee.
{19} Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.
{20} Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man, neither will he help the evil doers:
{21} Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing.
{22} They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nought.

Job -- 9

{1} Then Job answered and said,
{2} I know it is so of a truth: but how should man be just with God?
{3} If he will contend with him, he cannot answer him one of a thousand.
{4} He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: who hath hardened himself against him, and hath prospered?
{5} Which removeth the mountains, and they know not: which overturneth them in his anger.
{6} Which shaketh the earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble.
{7} Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars.
{8} Which alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea.
{9} Which maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south.
{10} Which doeth great things past finding out; yea, and wonders without number.
{11} Lo, he goeth by me, and I see him not: he passeth on also, but I perceive him not.
{12} Behold, he taketh away, who can hinder him? who will say unto him, What doest thou?
{13} If God will not withdraw his anger, the proud helpers do stoop under him.
{14} How much less shall I answer him, and choose out my words to reason with him?
{15} Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer, but I would make supplication to my judge.
{16} If I had called, and he had answered me; yet would I not believe that he had hearkened unto my voice.
{17} For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause.
{18} He will not suffer me to take my breath, but filleth me with bitterness.
{19} If I speak of strength, lo, he is strong: and if of judgment, who shall set me a time to plead?
{20} If I justify myself, mine own mouth shall condemn me: if I say, I am perfect, it shall also prove me perverse.
{21} Though I were perfect, yet would I not know my soul: I would despise my life.
{22} This is one thing, therefore I said it, He destroyeth the perfect and the wicked.
{23} If the scourge slay suddenly, he will laugh at the trial of the innocent.
{24} The earth is given into the hand of the wicked: he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if not, where, and who is he?
{25} Now my days are swifter than a post: they flee away, they see no good.
{26} They are passed away as the swift ships: as the eagle that hasteth to the prey.
{27} If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will leave off my heaviness, and comfort myself:
{28} I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that thou wilt not hold me innocent.
{29} If I be wicked, why then labour I in vain?
{30} If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean;
{31} Yet shalt thou plunge me in the ditch, and mine own clothes shall abhor me.
{32} For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, and we should come together in judgment.
{33} Neither is there any daysman betwixt us, that might lay his hand upon us both.
{34} Let him take his rod away from me, and let not his fear terrify me:
{35} Then would I speak, and not fear him; but it is not so with me.
