< Job 7 >

1 ¿ Not [does] service [belong] to humankind (on *Q(k)*) earth and like [the] days of a hired laborer [are] days? his.
Is there not a war-service for man on the earth? Are not his days as the days of a hireling?
2 Like a slave [who] he pants for shade and like a hired laborer [who] he longs for wage[s] his.
As a servant panteth for the shade, And as a hireling looketh for his wages,
3 So I have been allotted for myself months of worthlessness and nights of trouble people have allotted to me.
So am I made to possess months of affliction, And wearisome nights are appointed for me.
4 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.
If I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? And I am full of restlessness until the dawning of the day.
5 It is clothed flesh my maggot[s] (and clod[s] of *Q(K)*) dust skin my it has hardened and it has run.
My flesh is clothed with worms, and clods of dust; My skin is broken and become loathsome.
6 Days my they have been swift more than a weaver's shuttle and they have come to an end with not hope.
My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle; They pass away without hope.
7 Remember that [is] a breath life my not it will return eye my to see good.
O remember that my life is a breath; That mine eye shall no more see good!
8 Not it will observe me an eye of sight eyes your [will be] on me and there not [will be] me.
The eye of him that hath seen me shall see me no more; Thine eyes shall look for me, but I shall not be.
9 It vanishes a cloud and it has gone thus [one who] has gone down Sheol not he will come up. (Sheol h7585)
As the cloud dissolveth and wasteth away, So he that goeth down to the grave shall arise no more; (Sheol h7585)
10 Not he will return again to house his and not it will acknowledge him again place his.
No more shall he return to his house, And his dwelling-place shall know him no more.
11 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.
Therefore I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
12 ¿ [the] sea [am] I Or? [the] sea monster that you will set over me a guard.
Am I a sea, or a sea-monster, That thou settest a watch over me?
13 If I said it will comfort me couch my it will carry in complaint my bed my.
When I say, My bed shall relieve me, My couch shall ease my complaint,
14 And you will dismay me by dreams and from visions you will terrify me.
Then thou scarest me with dreams, And terrifiest me with visions;
15 And it chose strangling self my death more than bones my.
So that my soul chooseth strangling, Yea, death, rather than these my bones.
16 I reject not for ever I will live cease from me for [are] a breath days my.
I am wasting away; I shall not live alway: Let me alone, for my days are a vapor!
17 What? [is] humankind that you will make great him and that you will set to him heart your.
What is man, that thou shouldst make great account him, And fix thy mind upon him?—
18 And you have visited him to mornings to moments you test him.
That thou shouldst visit him every morning, And prove him every moment?
19 How long? not will you look away from me not will you let alone? me until swallow I spittle my.
How long ere thou wilt look away from me, And let me alone, till I have time to breathe?
20 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.
If I have sinned, what have I done to thee, O thou watcher of men! Why hast thou set me up as thy mark, So that I have become a burden to myself?
21 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.
And why dost thou not pardon my transgression, And take away mine iniquity? For soon shall I sleep in the dust; And, though thou seek me diligently, I shall not be.
