New American Standard Bible
""If I say, 'My bed will comfort me, My couch will ease my complaint,'"
— job 7:13, New American Standard Bible
"He will not return again to his house, Nor will his place know him anymore.
"Therefore I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit, I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
"Am I the sea, or the sea monster, That You set a guard over me?
"If I say, 'My bed will comfort me, My couch will ease my complaint,'
Then You frighten me with dreams And terrify me by visions;
So that my soul would choose suffocation, Death rather than my pains.
"I waste away; I will not live forever. Leave me alone, for my days are but a breath.
