Is there not an appointed timeH6635 to manH582 upon earthH776? are not his daysH3117 also like the daysH3117 of an hirelingH7916? {an appointed…: or, a warfare}
As a servantH5650 earnestly desirethH7602 the shadowH6738, and as an hirelingH7916 lookethH6960 for the reward of his workH6467: {earnestly…: Heb. gapeth after}
So am I made to possessH5157 monthsH3391 of vanityH7723, and wearisomeH5999 nightsH3915 are appointedH4487 to me.
When I lie downH7901, I sayH559, When shall I ariseH6965, and the nightH6153 be goneH4059? and I am fullH7646 of tossings to and froH5076 unto the dawning of the dayH5399. {the night…: Heb. the evening be measured?}
My fleshH1320 is clothedH3847 with wormsH7415 and clodsH1487 of dustH6083; my skinH5785 is brokenH7280, and become loathsomeH3988.
My daysH3117 are swifterH7043 than a weaver's shuttleH708, and are spentH3615 withoutH657 hopeH8615.
O rememberH2142 that my lifeH2416 is windH7307: mine eyeH5869 shall no moreH7725 seeH7200 goodH2896. {shall…: Heb. shall not return} {see: to see, that is, to enjoy}
The eyeH5869 of him that hath seenH7210 me shall seeH7789 me no more: thine eyesH5869 are upon me, and I am not. {I am…: that is, I can live no longer}
As the cloudH6051 is consumedH3615 and vanisheth awayH3212: so he that goeth downH3381 to the graveH7585 shall come upH5927 no more.
He shall returnH7725 no more to his houseH1004, neither shall his placeH4725 knowH5234 him any more.
Therefore I will not refrainH2820 my mouthH6310; I will speakH1696 in the anguishH6862 of my spiritH7307; I will complainH7878 in the bitternessH4751 of my soulH5315.
Am I a seaH3220, or a whaleH8577, that thou settestH7760 a watchH4929 over me?
When I sayH559, My bedH6210 shall comfortH5162 me, my couchH4904 shall easeH5375 my complaintH7879;
Then thou scarestH2865 me with dreamsH2472, and terrifiestH1204 me through visionsH2384:
So that my soulH5315 choosethH977 stranglingH4267, and deathH4194 rather than my lifeH6106. {life: Heb. bones}
I loatheH3988 it; I would not liveH2421 alwayH5769: let me aloneH2308; for my daysH3117 are vanityH1892.
What is manH582, that thou shouldest magnifyH1431 him? and that thou shouldest setH7896 thine heartH3820 upon him?
And that thou shouldest visitH6485 him every morningH1242, and tryH974 him every momentH7281?
How longH4100 wilt thou not departH8159 from me, nor let me aloneH7503 till I swallow downH1104 my spittleH7536?
I have sinnedH2398; what shall I doH6466 unto thee, O thou preserverH5341 of menH120? why hast thou setH7760 me as a markH4645 against thee, so that I am a burdenH4853 to myself?
And why dost thou not pardonH5375 my transgressionH6588, and take awayH5674 mine iniquityH5771? for now shall I sleepH7901 in the dustH6083; and thou shalt seek me in the morningH7836, but I shall not be.

SeeingH518 his daysH3117 are determinedH2782, the numberH4557 of his monthsH2320 are with thee, thou hast appointedH6213 his boundsH2706 that he cannot passH5674;
There is no manH120 that hath powerH7989 over the spiritH7307 to retainH3607 the spiritH7307; neither hath he powerH7983 in the dayH3117 of deathH4194: and there is no dischargeH4917 in that warH4421; neither shall wickednessH7562 deliverH4422 those that are givenH1167 to it. {discharge: or, casting off weapons}
TurnH8159 from him, that he may restH2308, till he shall accomplishH7521, as an hirelingH7916, his dayH3117. {rest: Heb. cease}
O thatH5414 thou wouldest hideH6845 me in the graveH7585, that thou wouldest keep me secretH5641, until thy wrathH639 be pastH7725, that thou wouldest appointH7896 me a set timeH2706, and rememberH2142 me!
And he shall reckonH2803 with him that boughtH7069 him from the yearH8141 that he was soldH4376 to him unto the yearH8141 of jubileH3104: and the priceH3701 of his saleH4465 shall be according unto the numberH4557 of yearsH8141, according to the timeH3117 of an hired servantH7916 shall it be with him.
If a manH1397 dieH4191, shall he liveH2421 again? all the daysH3117 of my appointed timeH6635 will I waitH3176, till my changeH2487 comeH935.
It shall not seem hardH7185 unto theeH5869, when thou sendest him awayH7971 freeH2670 from thee; for he hath been worthH7939 a doubleH4932 hired servantH7916 to thee, in servingH5647 thee sixH8337 yearsH8141: and the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 shall blessH1288 thee in all that thou doestH6213.
LORDH3068, make me to knowH3045 mine endH7093, and the measureH4060 of my daysH3117, what it is; that I may knowH3045 how frailH2310 I am. {how…: or, what time I have here}
For thus hath the LordH136 saidH559 unto me, Within a yearH8141, according to the yearsH8141 of an hirelingH7916, and all the gloryH3519 of KedarH6938 shall failH3615:
GoH1980, and sayH559 to HezekiahH2396, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of DavidH1732 thy fatherH1, I have heardH8085 thy prayerH8605, I have seenH7200 thy tearsH1832: behold, I will addH3254 unto thy daysH3117 fifteenH2568+H6240 yearsH8141.
ForG1063 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 isG2076 likeG3664 unto a manG444 that is an householderG3617, whichG3748 went outG1831 early in the morningG260+G4404 to hireG3409 labourersG2040 intoG1519 hisG846 vineyardG290.
AndG1161 when he had agreedG4856 withG3326 the labourersG2040 forG1537 a pennyG1220 a dayG2250, he sentG649 themG846 intoG1519 hisG846 vineyardG290. {penny: the Roman penny is the eighth part of an ounce, which after five shillings the ounce is seven pence halfpenny; about fourteen cents}
AndG2532 he went outG1831 aboutG4012 the thirdG5154 hourG5610, and sawG1492 othersG243 standingG2476 idleG692 inG1722 the marketplaceG58,
And saidG2036 unto themG2548; GoG5217 yeG5210 alsoG2532 intoG1519 the vineyardG290, andG2532 whatsoeverG3739+G1437 isG5600 rightG1342 I will giveG1325 youG5213. AndG1161 they went their wayG565.
AgainG3825 he went outG1831 aboutG4012 the sixthG1623 andG2532 ninthG1766 hourG5610, and didG4160 likewiseG5615.
AndG1161 aboutG4012 the eleventhG1734 hourG5610 he went outG1831, and foundG2147 othersG243 standingG2476 idleG692, andG2532 saithG3004 unto themG846, WhyG5101 stand yeG2476 hereG5602 allG3650 the dayG2250 idleG692?
They sayG3004 unto himG846, BecauseG3754 no manG3762 hath hiredG3409 usG2248. He saithG3004 unto themG846, GoG5217 yeG5210 alsoG2532 intoG1519 the vineyardG290; andG2532 whatsoeverG3739+G1437 isG5600 rightG1342, that shall ye receiveG2983.
SoG1161 when evenG3798 was comeG1096, the lordG2962 of the vineyardG290 saithG3004 unto hisG846 stewardG2012, CallG2564 the labourersG2040, andG2532 giveG591 themG846 their hireG3408, beginningG756 fromG575 the lastG2078 untoG2193 the firstG4413.
AndG2532 when they cameG2064 that were hired aboutG4012 the eleventhG1734 hourG5610, they receivedG2983 every manG303 a pennyG1220.
ButG1161 when the firstG4413 cameG2064, they supposedG3543 thatG3754 they should have receivedG2983 moreG4119; andG2532 they likewiseG2532 receivedG2983 every manG846+G303 a pennyG1220.
AndG1161 when they had receivedG2983 it, they murmuredG1111 againstG2596 the goodman of the houseG3617,
SayingG3004, TheseG3778 lastG2078 have wroughtG4160 but oneG3391 hourG5610, andG2532 thou hast madeG4160 themG846 equalG2470 unto usG2254, whichG3588 have borneG941 the burdenG922 andG2532 heatG2742 of the dayG2250. {have wrought…: or, have continued one hour only}
ButG1161 he answeredG611 oneG1520 of themG846, and saidG2036, FriendG2083, I doG91 theeG4571 noG3756 wrongG91: didstG4856 notG3780 thou agreeG4856 with meG3427 for a pennyG1220?
TakeG142 that thineG4674 is, andG2532 go thy wayG5217+G1161: I willG2309 giveG1325 unto thisG5129 lastG2078, evenG2532 asG5613 unto theeG4671.
Is it notG3756 lawfulG1832 for meG3427 to doG4160 whatG3739 I willG2309 withG1722 mine ownG1699+G1487? IsG2076 thineG4675 eyeG3788 evilG4190, becauseG3754 IG1473 amG1510 goodG18?
