Job 10:18-22 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

18. " 'Why did you bring me out of my mother's body? I wish I had died before anyone saw me.

19. I wish I'd never been born! I wish I'd been carried straight from my mother's body to the grave!

20. Aren't my few days almost over? Leave me so I can have a moment of joy.

21. Turn away before I go to the place I can't return from. It's the land of darkness and deep shadow.

22. It's the land of darkest night and deep shadow and disorder. There even the light is like darkness.' "
