"When I say, 'My bed shall comfort me. My couch shall ease my complaint;'"
— Job 7:13, World English Bible
“When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint;”
“When I say, My bed shall comfort me, My couch shall ease my complaint; ”
“If I say,“My bed will comfort me, my couch will ease my complaint,””
“If I say: My bed shall comfort me, and I shall be relieved, speaking with myself on my couch:”
“When I say, In my bed I will have comfort, there I will get rest from my disease;”
“When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint;”
He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more.
"Therefore I will not keep silent. I will speak in the anguish of my spirit. I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
Am I a sea, or a sea monster, that you put a guard over me?
When I say, 'My bed shall comfort me. My couch shall ease my complaint;'
then you scare me with dreams, and terrify me through visions:
so that my soul chooses strangling, death rather than my bones.
I loathe my life. I don't want to live forever. Leave me alone, for my days are but a breath.
