Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:10 - and he shall surely not return to his own house, neither shall his place know him any more.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:12 - Am I a sea, or a serpent, that thou hast set a watch over me?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:13 - I said that my bed should comfort me, and I would privately counsel with myself on my couch.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:14 - Thou scarest me with dreams, and dost terrify me with visions.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:15 - Thou wilt separate life from my spirit; and yet keep my bones from death.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:16 - For I shall not live for ever, that I should patiently endure: depart from me, for my life is vain.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:17 - For what is man, that thou hast magnified him? or that thou givest heed to him?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:18 - Wilt thou visit him till the morning, and judge him till the time of rest?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:19 - How long dost thou not let me alone, nor let me go, until I shall swallow down my spittle?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:20 - If I have sinned, what shall I be able to do, O thou that understandest the mind of men? why hast thou made me as thine accuser, and why am I a burden to thee?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:21 - Why hast thou not forgotten my iniquity, and purged my sin? but now I shall depart to the earth; and in the morning, I am no more.
