Job 3:13-17 English Standard Version (ESV)

13. For then I would have lain down and been quiet;I would have slept; then I would have been at rest,

14. with kings and counselors of the earthwho rebuilt ruins for themselves,

15. or with princes who had gold,who filled their houses with silver.

16. Or why was I not as a hidden stillborn child,as infants who never see the light?

17. There the wicked cease from troubling,and there the weary are at rest.
