Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:18 - And inspectest him in the mornings, In the evenings dost try him?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:19 - How long dost Thou not look from me? Thou dost not desist till I swallow my spittle.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:20 - I have sinned, what do I to Thee, O watcher of man? Why hast Thou set me for a mark to Thee, And I am for a burden to myself -- and what?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:21 - Thou dost not take away my transgression, And cause to pass away mine iniquity, Because now, for dust I lie down: And Thou hast sought me -- and I am not!
