Chapter 10

1


 

  My soul is weary of my life; I will leave my complaint upon myself; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.  

 

 

--

2


 

  I will say unto God, Do not condemn me; shew me wherefore thou contendest with me.  

 

 

--

3


 

  [Is it] good unto thee that thou shouldest oppress, that thou shouldest despise the work of thine hands, and shine upon the counsel of the wicked?  

 

 

--

4


 

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

 

 

--

5


 

  [Are] thy days as the days of man? [are] thy years as man's days,  

 

 

--

6


 

  That thou enquirest after mine iniquity, and searchest after my sin?  

 

 

--

7


 

  Thou knowest that I am not wicked; and [there is] none that can deliver out of thine hand.  

 

 

--

8


 

  Thine hands have made me and fashioned me together round about; yet thou dost destroy me.  

 

 

--

9


 

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

 

 

--

10


 

  Hast thou not poured me out as milk, and curdled me like cheese?  

 

 

--

11


 

  Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh, and hast fenced me with bones and sinews.  

 

 

--

12


 

  Thou hast granted me life and favour, and thy visitation hath preserved my spirit.  

 

 

--

13


 

  And these [things] hast thou hid in thine heart: I know that this [is] with thee.  

 

 

--

14


 

  If I sin, then thou markest me, and thou wilt not acquit me from mine iniquity.  

 

 

--

15


 

  If I be wicked, woe unto me; and [if] I be righteous, [yet] will I not lift up my head. [I am] full of confusion; therefore see thou mine affliction;  

 

 

--

16


 

  For it increaseth. Thou huntest me as a fierce lion: and again thou shewest thyself marvellous upon me.  

 

 

--

17


 

  Thou renewest thy witnesses against me, and increasest thine indignation upon me; changes and war [are] against me.  

 

 

--

18


 

  Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? Oh that I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me!  

 

 

--

19


 

  I should have been as though I had not been; I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.  

 

 

--

20


 

  [Are] not my days few? cease [then, and] let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,  

 

 

--

21


 

  Before I go [whence] I shall not return, [even] to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;  

 

 

--

22


 

  A land of darkness, as darkness [itself; and] of the shadow of death, without any order, and [where] the light [is] as darkness.
