Job 10 :: Darby Translation (DBY)

Job 10:1My soul is weary of my life: I will give free course to my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
Job 10:2I will say unto God, Do not condemn me; shew me wherefore thou strivest with me.
Job 10:3Doth it please thee to oppress, that thou shouldest despise the work of thy hands, and shine upon the counsel of the wicked?
Job 10:4Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth?
Job 10:5Are thy days as the days of a mortal? are thy years as a man's days,
Job 10:6That thou searchest after mine iniquity, and inquirest into my sin;
Job 10:7Since thou knowest that I am not wicked, and that there is none that delivereth out of thy hand?
Job 10:8Thy hands have bound me together and made me as one, round about; yet dost thou swallow me up!
Job 10:9Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast made me as clay, and wilt bring me into dust again.
Job 10:10Hast thou not poured me out as milk, and curdled me like cheese?
Job 10:11Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh, and knit me together with bones and sinews;
Job 10:12Thou hast granted me life and favour, and thy care hath preserved my spirit;
Job 10:13And these things didst thou hide in thy heart; I know that this was with thee.
Job 10:14If I sinned, thou wouldest mark me, and thou wouldest not acquit me of mine iniquity.
Job 10:15If I were wicked, woe unto me! and righteous, I will not lift up my head, being so full of shame, and beholding mine affliction; --
Job 10:16And it increaseth: thou huntest me as a fierce lion; and ever again thou shewest thy marvellous power upon me.
Job 10:17Thou renewest thy witnesses before me and increasest thy displeasure against me; successions of evil and a time of toil are with me.
Job 10:18And wherefore didst thou bring me forth out of the womb? I had expired, and no eye had seen me.
Job 10:19I should be as though I had not been; I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.
Job 10:20Are not my days few? cease then and let me alone, that I may revive a little,
Job 10:21Before I go, and never to return, -- to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;
Job 10:22A land of gloom, as darkness itself; of the shadow of death, without any order, where the light is as thick darkness.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
