NET Bible
"Are not my days few? Cease, then, and leave me alone, that I may find a little comfort,"
— Job 10:20, NET Bible
“Are not my days few? cease then, and let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,”
“Are not my days few? cease then, And let me alone, that I may take comfort a little, ”
“Aren't my days few? Cease then. Leave me alone, that I may find a little comfort,”
“Shall not the fewness of my days be ended shortly? Suffer me, therefore, that I may lament my sorrow a little:”
“Are not the days of my life small in number? Let your eyes be turned away from me, so that I may have a little pleasure,”
“Are not my days few? cease then, and let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,”
You bring new witnesses against me, and increase your anger against me; relief troops come against me.
An Appeal for Relief“Why then did you bring me out from the womb? I should have died and no eye would have seen me!
I should have been as though I had never existed; I should have been carried right from the womb to the grave!
Are not my days few? Cease, then, and leave me alone, that I may find a little comfort,
before I depart, never to return, to the land of darkness and the deepest shadow,
to the land of utter darkness, like the deepest darkness, and the deepest shadow and disorder, where even the light is like darkness.”
