Job 3:24–26

For my sighing comes instead of my bread,

and my groanings are poured out like water.

For the thing that I fear comes upon me,

and what I dread befalls me.

I am not at ease, nor am I quiet;

I have no rest, but trouble comes.”

I sigh when food is put before me,

and my groans pour out like water.

For the thing I feared has overtaken me,

and what I dreaded has happened to me.

I cannot relax or be calm;

I have no rest, for turmoil has come.

I cannot eat for sighing;

my groans pour out like water.

What I always feared has happened to me.

What I dreaded has come true.

I have no peace, no quietness.

I have no rest; only trouble comes.”

For my sighing comes before my bread,

and my groanings gush forth like water

because the dread that I feel has come upon me,

and what I feared befalls me.

I am not at ease, and I am not at peace,

and I do not have rest, thus turmoil has come.”

For my sighing cometh before I eat,

And my roarings are poured out like the waters.

For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me,

And that which I was afraid of is come unto me.

I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet;

Yet trouble came.
