Job 3:21 - Forerunner Commentary

Job 3:21

19 The small and great are there,
And the servant is free from his master.

20 “Why^a is light given to him who is in misery,
And life to the ^bbitter of soul,

21 Who ^along for death, but it does not come,
And search for it more than ^bhidden treasures;

22 Who rejoice exceedingly,
And are glad when they can find the ^agrave?

23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden,
^aAnd whom God has hedged in?

24 For my sighing comes before¹ I eat,
And my groanings pour out like water.
