< Job 7 >

1 Is there not a limited time of service to a mortal upon the earth? Are not his days also like the days of a hired laborer?
¿ Not [does] service [belong] to humankind (on *Q(k)*) earth and like [the] days of a hired laborer [are] days? his.
2 As a servant eagerly longeth for the shadow, and as a hired laborer hopeth for his reward:
Like a slave [who] he pants for shade and like a hired laborer [who] he longs for wage[s] his.
3 So was I compelled to possess months of vanity, and nights of trouble were counted out unto me.
So I have been allotted for myself months of worthlessness and nights of trouble people have allotted to me.
4 When I He down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am wearied with tossings about till the dawn of day.
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 My flesh is covered with worms and clods of dust: my skin is burst open, and become loathsome.
It is clothed flesh my maggot[s] (and clod[s] of *Q(K)*) dust skin my it has hardened and it has run.
6 My days hasten away more swiftly than a weaver's shuttle, and they come to an end in the absence of hope.
Days my they have been swift more than a weaver's shuttle and they have come to an end with not hope.
7 Oh remember that nothing but a breath is my life; that my eye will not again see happiness;
Remember that [is] a breath life my not it will return eye my to see good.
8 The eye of him that seeth me now will not behold me again: [thou fixest] thy eyes 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 As the cloud vanisheth and passeth away: so will he that goeth down to the nether world not come up again. (Sheol h7585)
It vanishes a cloud and it has gone thus [one who] has gone down Sheol not he will come up. (Sheol h7585)
10 He will return no more to his house, and his place will not recognize him any more.
Not he will return again to house his and not it will acknowledge him again place his.
11 Therefore will I also not restrain my mouth: I will speak in the anguish of my spirit: I will complain in 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 monster, that thou settest a watch over me?
¿ [the] sea [am] I Or? [the] sea monster that you will set over me a guard.
13 For should I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall help me bear my complaint:
If I said it will comfort me couch my it will carry in complaint my bed my.
14 Then wouldst thou frighten me with dreams, and with visions wouldst thou terrify me;
And you will dismay me by dreams and from visions you will terrify me.
15 So that my soul would choose strangling, death rather than these limbs of mine.
And it chose strangling self my death more than bones my.
16 I loathe it; I cannot live for ever: let me alone; for my days are but nought.
I reject not for ever I will live cease from me for [are] a breath days my.
17 What is the mortal, that thou shouldst make him great? and that thou shouldst direct thy heart toward him?
What? [is] humankind that you will make great him and that you will set to him heart your.
18 And that thou shouldst visit him every morning, probe him every moment?
And you have visited him to mornings to moments you test him.
19 How long wilt thou not turn thy regard from me, nor let; me loose till I 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 [injury] can I cause unto thee, O thou Guardian of men? why hast thou set me as an object for thee to strike at, so that I am become a burden to myself?
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 And why wilt thou not forgive my transgression, and let my iniquity pass away? for soon must I lie down in the dust; and thou wilt seek for me, but I shall be 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.
