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.
