< Job 7 >
1 not army: duty to/for human (upon *Q(k)*) land: country/planet and like/as day hired day his
Is there not a war-service for man on the earth? Are not his days as the days of a hireling?
2 like/as servant/slave to long for shadow and like/as hired to await work his
As a servant panteth for the shade, And as a hireling looketh for his wages,
3 so to inherit to/for me month vanity: vain and night trouble to count to/for me
So am I made to possess months of affliction, And wearisome nights are appointed for me.
4 if to lie down: lay down and to say how to arise: rise and to measure evening and to satisfy tossing till 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 to clothe flesh my worm (and clod *Q(K)*) dust skin my to harden and to flow
My flesh is clothed with worms, and clods of dust; My skin is broken and become loathsome.
6 day my to lighten from shuttle and to end: finish in/on/with end hope
My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle; They pass away without hope.
7 to remember for spirit: breath life my not to return: again eye my to/for to see: see good
O remember that my life is a breath; That mine eye shall no more see good!
8 not to see me eye sight eye your in/on/with me and nothing I
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 to end: expend cloud and to go: went so to go down hell: Sheol not to ascend: rise (Sheol )
As the cloud dissolveth and wasteth away, So he that goeth down to the grave shall arise no more; (Sheol )
10 not to return: return still to/for house: home his and not to recognize him still place his
No more shall he return to his house, And his dwelling-place shall know him no more.
11 also I not to withhold lip my to speak: speak in/on/with distress spirit my to muse in/on/with bitter 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 sea I if serpent: monster for to set: make upon me custody
Am I a sea, or a sea-monster, That thou settest a watch over me?
13 for to say to be sorry: comfort me bed my to lift: forgive in/on/with complaint my bed my
When I say, My bed shall relieve me, My couch shall ease my complaint,
14 and to to be dismayed me in/on/with dream and from vision to terrify me
Then thou scarest me with dreams, And terrifiest me with visions;
15 and to choose strangling soul: myself my death from bone my
So that my soul chooseth strangling, Yea, death, rather than these my bones.
16 to reject not to/for forever: enduring to live to cease from me for vanity day my
I am wasting away; I shall not live alway: Let me alone, for my days are a vapor!
17 what? human for to magnify him and for to set: make to(wards) him heart your
What is man, that thou shouldst make great account him, And fix thy mind upon him?—
18 and to reckon: visit him to/for morning to/for moment to test him
That thou shouldst visit him every morning, And prove him every moment?
19 like/as what? not to gaze from me not to slacken me till to swallow up I spittle my
How long ere thou wilt look away from me, And let me alone, till I have time to breathe?
20 to sin what? to work to/for you to watch [the] man to/for what? to set: make me to/for target to/for you and to be upon me to/for 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 what? not to lift: forgive transgression my and to pass: bring [obj] iniquity: crime my for now to/for dust to lie down: be dead and to seek me and nothing I
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.
