Job 10 — Context

Have you eyes of flesh, or do you see as man sees?

Are your days as the days of man, or your years like his,

That you take note of my sin, searching after my wrongdoing,

Though you see that I am not an evil-doer; and there is no one who is able to take a man out of your hands?

Your hands made me, and I was formed by you, but then, changing your purpose, you gave me up to destruction.

O keep in mind that you made me out of earth; and will you send me back again to dust?

Was I not drained out like milk, becoming hard like cheese?
