Iob 10

¹My soule is weary of my life, I will leaue my complaint vpon my selfe; I will speake in the bitternesse of my soule.

²I will say vnto God, Doe not condemne mee; shewe me wherefore thou contendest with me.

³Is it good vnto thee, that thou shouldest oppresse? that thou shouldest despise the worke of thine hands? and shine vpon the counsell of the wicked?

⁴Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth?

⁵Are thy dayes as the dayes of man? are thy yeeres as mans dayes,

⁶That thou enquirest after mine iniquitie, and searchest after my sinne?

⁷Thou knowest that I am not wicked, and there is none that can deliuer out of thine hand.

⁸Thine hands haue made me and fashioned me together round about yet thou doest destroy me.

⁹Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast made me as the clay, and wilt thou bring me into dust againe?

¹⁰Hast thou not powred me out as milke, and cruddled me like cheese?

¹¹Thou hast cloathed me with skin and flesh, and hast fenced me with bones and sinewes.

¹²Thou hast granted me life and fauour, and thy visitation hath preserued my spirit.

¹³And these things hast thou hid in thine heart; I know that this is with thee.

¹⁴If I sinne, then thou markest me, and thou wilt not acquite me from mine iniquitie.

¹⁵If I be wicked, woe vnto me; and if I be righteous, yet will I not lift vp my head: I am full of confusion, therefore see thou mine affliction:

¹⁶For it increaseth: thou huntest me as a fierce Lion: and againe thou shewest thy selfe marueilous vpon me.

¹⁷Thou renuest thy witnesses against me, and increasest thine indignation vpon me; Changes and warre are against me.

¹⁸Wherfore then hast thou brought me forth out of the wombe? Oh that I had giuen vp the ghost, and no eye had seene me!

¹⁹I should haue bene as though I had not bene, I should haue bene caried from the wombe to the graue.

²⁰Are not my dayes few? cease then, and let me alone that I may take comfort a litle,

²¹Before I goe whence I shall not returne, euen to the land of darknes and the shadow of death,

²²A land of darknes, as darknes it selfe, and of the shadow of death, without any order, and where the light is as darkenes.
