" The life of a man on the earth is a battle, and his days are like the days of a hired hand. "
— Job 7:1, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also like the days of an hireling?”
“Is there not a warfare to man upon earth? And are not his days like the days of a hireling? ”
“"Isn't a man forced to labor on earth? Aren't his days like the days of a hired hand?”
“The Brevity of Life“Does not humanity have hard service on earth? Are not their days also like the days of a hired man?”
“The life of man upon earth is a warfare, and his days are like the days of a hireling.”
“Has not man his ordered time of trouble on the earth? and are not his days like the days of a servant working for payment?”
“Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also like the days of an hireling?”
The life of a man on the earth is a battle, and his days are like the days of a hired hand.
Just as a servant desires the shade, and just as the hired hand looks forward to the end of his work,
so also have I had empty months and have counted my burdensome nights.
If I lie down to sleep, I will say, “When will I rise?” And next I will hope for the evening and will be filled with sorrows even until darkness.
