< Job 7 >
1 Is not the life of man upon earth a state of trial? and his existence as that of a hireling by the day?
¿ Not [does] service [belong] to humankind (on *Q(k)*) earth and like [the] days of a hired laborer [are] days? his.
2 Or as a servant that fears his master, and one who has grasped a shadow? or as a hireling waiting for his pay?
Like a slave [who] he pants for shade and like a hired laborer [who] he longs for wage[s] his.
3 So have I also endured months of vanity, and nights of pain have been appointed me.
So I have been allotted for myself months of worthlessness and nights of trouble people have allotted to me.
4 Whenever I lie down, I say, When [will it be] day? and whenever I rise up, again [I say] when [will it be] evening? and I am full of pains from evening to morning.
If I lay down and I will say when? will I arise and it will continue evening and I will be surfeited restlessness until twilight.
5 And my body is covered with loathsome worms; and I waste away, scraping off clods of dust from my eruption.
It is clothed flesh my maggot[s] (and clod[s] of *Q(K)*) dust skin my it has hardened and it has run.
6 And my life is lighter than a word, and has perished in vain hope.
Days my they have been swift more than a weaver's shuttle and they have come to an end with not hope.
7 Remember then that my life is breath, and mine eye shalt not yet again see good.
Remember that [is] a breath life my not it will return eye my to see good.
8 The eye of him that sees me shall not see me [again]: thine eyes are upon me, and I am no more.
Not it will observe me an eye of sight eyes your [will be] on me and there not [will be] me.
9 [I am] as a cloud that is cleared away from the sky: for if a man go down to the grave, he shall not come up again: (Sheol )
It vanishes a cloud and it has gone thus [one who] has gone down Sheol not he will come up. (Sheol )
10 and he shall surely not return to his own house, neither shall his place know him any more.
Not he will return again to house his and not it will acknowledge him again place his.
11 Then neither will I refrain my mouth: I will speak being in distress; being in anguish I will disclose the bitterness of my soul.
Also I not I will restrain mouth my I will speak in [the] distress of spirit my I will complain in [the] bitterness of soul my.
12 Am I a sea, or a serpent, that thou hast set a watch over me?
¿ [the] sea [am] I Or? [the] sea monster that you will set over me a guard.
13 I said that my bed should comfort me, and I would privately counsel with myself on my couch.
If I said it will comfort me couch my it will carry in complaint my bed my.
14 Thou scarest me with dreams, and dost terrify me with visions.
And you will dismay me by dreams and from visions you will terrify me.
15 Thou wilt separate life from my spirit; and yet [keep] my bones from death.
And it chose strangling self my death more than bones my.
16 For I shall not live for ever, that I should patiently endure: depart from me, for my life [is] vain.
I reject not for ever I will live cease from me for [are] a breath days my.
17 For what is man, that thou hast magnified him? or that thou givest heed to him?
What? [is] humankind that you will make great him and that you will set to him heart your.
18 Wilt thou visit him till the morning, and judge him till [the time of] rest?
And you have visited him to mornings to moments you test him.
19 How long dost thou not let me alone, nor let me go, until I shall swallow down my spittle?
How long? not will you look away from me not will you let alone? me until swallow I spittle my.
20 If I have sinned, what shall I be able to do, O thou that understandest the mind of men? why hast thou made me as thine accuser, and [why] am I a burden to thee?
I have sinned what? do I do - to you O watcher of humankind why? have you set me to a target of you and I have become on myself a burden.
21 Why hast thou not forgotten my iniquity, and purged my sin? but now I shall depart to the earth; and in the morning I am no more.
And why? - not will you forgive transgression my so may you take away? iniquity my for now to the dust I will lie down and you will look for me and there not [will be] me.
