"If my head is held high, you hunt me like a lion. Again you show yourself powerful to me."
— Job 10:16, World English Bible
“For it increaseth. Thou huntest me as a fierce lion: and again thou shewest thyself marvellous upon me.”
“And ifmy head exalt itself, thou huntest me as a lion; And again thou showest thyself marvellous upon me. ”
“If I lift myself up, you hunt me as a fierce lion, and again you display your power against me.”
“And for pride thou wilt take me as a lioness, and returning, thou tormentest me wonderfully.”
“And that if there was cause for pride, you would go after me like a lion; and again put out your wonders against me:”
“For it increaseth. Thou huntest me as a fierce lion: and again thou shewest thyself marvellous upon me.”
Yet you hid these things in your heart. I know that this is with you:
if I sin, then you mark me. You will not acquit me from my iniquity.
If I am wicked, woe to me. If I am righteous, I still shall not lift up my head, being filled with disgrace, and conscious of my affliction.
If my head is held high, you hunt me like a lion. Again you show yourself powerful to me.
You renew your witnesses against me, and increase your indignation on me. Changes and warfare are with me.
"'Why, then, have you brought me forth out of the womb? I wish I had given up the spirit, and no eye had seen me.
I should have been as though I had not been. I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.
