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—

7 though you know that I am not guilty

and that no one can rescue me from your hand?

5 Are your days as the days of man,

or your years as a man’s years,

6 that you seek out my iniquity

and search for my sin,

7 although you know that I am not guilty,

and there is none to deliver out of your hand?

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?

7 Thou knowest that I am not wicked;

And there is none that can deliver out of thine hand.

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?

7 Although you know I am not guilty,

no one can rescue me from your hands.

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.

7 You know I am not guilty,

but no one can save me from your power.

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,

7 Although thou knowest that I am not wicked,

And there is none that can deliver out of thy hand?

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; 7 Since thou knowest that I am not wicked, and that there is none that delivereth out of thy hand?

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? 

7 You know I’m not guilty, 

but there is no one to rescue me from your hands. 

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,

7 even though You know that I am not wicked

and that there is no one who can deliver from Your hand?

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,

7 although you know that I am not guilty,

and there is no one to deliver out of your hand?

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

7 because of your knowledge that I am not guilty,

and there is no escaping from your hand?

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.

7 You already know I’m not guilty.

No one can save me from your powerful hand.

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?

7 ‘According to Your knowledge I am indeed not guilty,

Yet there is no deliverance from Your hand.
