Job 7:1-6

7:1

[Is there] not an appointed time
<06635>

to man
<0582>

upon earth
<0776>_?

[are not] his days
<03117>

also like the days
<03117>

of an hireling
<07916>_?

{an appointed...: or, a warfare}

7:2

As a servant
<05650>

earnestly desireth
<07602> (8799)

the shadow
<06738>_,

and as an hireling
<07916>

looketh
<06960> (8762)

for [the reward of] his work
<06467>_:

{earnestly...: Heb. gapeth after}

7:3

So am I made to possess
<05157> (8717)

months
<03391>

of vanity
<07723>_,

and wearisome
<05999>

nights
<03915>

are appointed
<04487> (8765)

to me.

7:4

When I lie down
<07901> (8804)_,

I say
<0559> (8804)_,

When shall I arise
<06965> (8799)_,

and the night
<06153>

be gone
<04059>_?

and I am full
<07646> (8804)

of tossings to and fro
<05076>

unto the dawning of the day
<05399>_.

{the night...: Heb. the evening be measured?}

7:5

My flesh
<01320>

is clothed
<03847> (8804)

with worms
<07415>

and clods
<01487>

of dust
<06083>_;

my skin
<05785>

is broken
<07280> (8804)_,

and become loathsome
<03988> (8735)_.

7:6

My days
<03117>

are swifter
<07043> (8804)

than a weaver's shuttle
<0708>_,

and are spent
<03615> (8799)

without
<0657>

hope
<08615>_.
