And search after my sin?

And knit me together with bones and sinews?

And would not acquit me of my guilt.

And if I am righteous, I dare not lift up my head.

I am sated with disgrace—so see my misery!

And again You would show Your wonders against me.

And increase Your vexation toward me;

[fn]Hardship after hardship is with me.

Carried from womb to tomb.’

[fn]Withdraw from me that I may have a little cheer

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 10:21 -

Before I go—and I shall not return

To the land of darkness and shadow of death,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 10:22 -

The land of utter gloom as the thick darkness itself,

Of the shadow of death, without order,

And which shines as the thick darkness.”
