"If I look for Sheol as my house, if I have spread my couch in the darkness,"
— Job 17:13, World English Bible
“If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness.”
“If I look for Sheol as my house; If I have spread my couch in the darkness; ”
“If I hope for the grave to be my home, if I spread out my bed in darkness,”
“If I wait hell is my house, and I have made my bed in darkness.”
“If I am waiting for the underworld as my house, if I have made my bed in the dark;”
“If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness.”
But as for you all, come on now again; I shall not find a wise man among you.
My days are past, my plans are broken off, as are the thoughts of my heart.
They change the night into day, saying 'The light is near' in the presence of darkness.
If I look for Sheol as my house, if I have spread my couch in the darkness,
If I have said to corruption, 'You are my father;' to the worm, 'My mother,' and 'my sister;'
where then is my hope? as for my hope, who shall see it?
Shall it go down with me to the gates of Sheol, or descend together into the dust?"
