Job 7:11-16 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

11. “So I will not be quiet! I will let my suffering spirit speak! I will let my bitter soul complain!

12. Am I one of your enemies? Is that why you put a guard over me?

13. My bed should bring me comfort. My couch should give me rest and relief.

14. But when I lie down, you scare me with dreams; you frighten me with visions.

15. So I would rather be choked to death than to live like this.

16. I hate my life—I give up. I don’t want to live forever. Leave me alone! My life means nothing.
