3 Does it please you to oppress me,

to spurn the work of your hands,

while you smile on the plans of the wicked?

4 Do you have eyes of flesh?

Do you see as a mortal sees?

5 Are your days like those of a mortal

or your years like those of a strong man,

6 that you must search out my faults

and probe after my sin—

3 Is it good unto thee that thou shouldest oppress,

That thou shouldest despise the work of thine hands,

And shine upon the counsel of the wicked?

4 Hast thou eyes of flesh?

Or seest thou as man seeth?

5 Are thy days as the days of man?

Are thy years as man’s days,

6 That thou inquirest after mine iniquity,

And searchest after my sin?

3 What do you gain by oppressing me?

Why do you reject me, the work of your own hands,

while smiling on the schemes of the wicked?

4 Are your eyes like those of a human?

Do you see things only as people see them?

5 Is your lifetime only as long as ours?

Is your life so short

6 that you must quickly probe for my guilt

and search for my sin?

3 Does it seem good to You that You should oppress,

That You should despise the work of Your hands,

And smile on the counsel of the wicked?

4 Do You have eyes of flesh?

Or do You see as man sees?

5 Are Your days like the days of a mortal man?

Are Your years like the days of a mighty man,

6 That You should seek for my iniquity

And search out my sin,

3 Does it make you happy to trouble me?

Don’t you care about me, the work of your hands?

Are you happy with the plans of evil people?

4 Do you have human eyes

that see as we see?

5 Are your days like the days of humans,

and your years like our years?

6 You look for the evil I have done

and search for my sin.

3 Is it good unto thee that thou shouldest oppress,

That thou shouldest despise the work of thy hands,

And shine upon the counsel of the wicked?

4 Hast thou eyes of flesh?

Or seest thou as man seeth?

5 Are thy days as the days of man,

Or thy years as man’s days,

6 That thou inquirest after mine iniquity,

And searchest after my sin,

3 Doth it please thee to oppress, that thou shouldest despise the work of thy hands, and shine upon the counsel of the wicked? 4 Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth? 5 Are thy days as the days of a mortal? are thy years as a man’s days, 6 That thou searchest after mine iniquity, and inquirest into my sin;

3 What do you gain by mistreating me, 

by rejecting the work of your hands 

while you favor the plans of the wicked? 

4 Do you actually have human eyes? 

Do you see as a mortal sees? 

5 Are your days like a mortal’s days? 

Are your years like a human’s years? 

6 Is that why you look for guilt in me 

and search for sin in me? 

3 Is it good for You to oppress,

to reject the work of Your hands,

and favor the plans of the wicked?

4 Do You have eyes of flesh,

or do You see as a human sees?

5 Are Your days like those of a human,

or Your years like those of a man,

6 that You look for my wrongdoing

and search for my sin,

3 Does it seem good to you to oppress,

to despise the work of your hands

and favor the schemes of the wicked?

4 Do you have eyes of flesh?

Do you see as humans see?

5 Are your days like the days of mortals,

or your years like human years,

6 that you seek out my iniquity

and search for my sin,

3 Is it good for you that you oppress,

that you despise the labor of your hands,

and you smile over the schemes of the wicked?

4 Do you have eyes of flesh?

Or do you see as human beings see?

5 Are your days as the days of human beings,

or your years as the days of man,

6 that you seek out my iniquity,

and you search for my sin

3 Does it make you happy when you crush me?

Does it please you to turn your back on what you have made?

While you do those things,

you smile on the plans of sinful people!

4 You don’t have human eyes.

You don’t see as people see.

5 Your days aren’t like the days of a human being.

Your years aren’t like the years of a mere man.

6 So you search for my mistakes.

You look for my sin.

3 ‘Is it right for You indeed to oppress,

To reject the labor of Your hands,

And to look favorably on the schemes of the wicked?

4 ‘Have You eyes of flesh?

Or do You see as a man sees?

5 ‘Are Your days as the days of a mortal,

Or Your years as man’s years,

6 That You should seek for my guilt

And search after my sin?
