Job 7:13 - People's Commentary (NT)

Job 7:13

11 “Therefore I will ^anot restrain my mouth;
I will speak in the anguish of my spirit;
I will ^bcomplain in the bitterness of my soul.

12 Am I a sea, or a sea serpent,
That You set a guard over me?

13 ^aWhen I say, ‘My bed will comfort me,
My couch will ease my complaint,’

14 Then You scare me with dreams
And terrify me with visions,

15 So that my soul chooses strangling
And death rather than¹ my body.

16 ^aI loathe my life;
I would not live forever.
^bLet me alone,
For ^cmy days are but a breath.

17 “What^a is man, that You should exalt him,
That You should set Your heart on him,

18 That You should¹ visit him every morning,
And test him every moment?
