King James Version
"For now should I have lain still and been quiet, I should have slept: then had I been at rest,"
— Job 3:13, King James Version
“For now should I have lain down and been quiet; I should have slept; then had I been at rest, ”
“For now should I have lain down and been quiet. I should have slept, then I would have been at rest,”
“For now I would be lying down and would be quiet, I would be asleep and then at peace”
“For now I should have been asleep and still, and should have rest in my sleep:”
“For then I might have gone to my rest in quiet, and in sleep have been in peace,”
“For now should I have lain still and been quiet, I should have slept: then had I been at rest,”
Because it shut not up the doors of my mother’s womb, nor hid sorrow from mine eyes.
Why died I not from the womb? why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly?
Why did the knees prevent me? or why the breasts that I should suck?
For now should I have lain still and been quiet, I should have slept: then had I been at rest,
With kings and counsellors of the earth, which built desolate places for themselves;
Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver:
Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants which never saw light.
