Job 10:13–22

¹³Although thou conceal these things in thy heart, yet I know that thou rememberest all things.

¹⁴If I have sinned, and thou hast spared me for an hour: why dost thou not suffer me to be clean from my iniquity?

¹⁵And if I be wicked, woe unto me: and if just, I shall not lift up my head, being filled with affliction and misery.

¹⁶And for pride thou wilt take me as a lioness, and returning, thou tormentest me wonderfully.

¹⁷Thou renewest thy witnesses against me, and multipliest thy wrath upon me, and pains war against me.

¹⁸Why didst thou bring me forth out of the womb? O that I had been consumed, that eye might not see me l

¹⁹I should have been as if I had not been, carried from the womb to the grave.

²⁰Shall not the fewness of my days be ended shortly? Suffer me, therefore, that I may lament my sorrow a little:

²¹Before I go and return no more, to a land that is dark and covered with the mist of death:

²²A land of misery and darkness, where the shadow of death, and no order, but everlasting horror dwelleth.
