Job 7:10-15 English Standard Version (ESV)

10. he returns no more to his house,nor does his place know him anymore.

11. “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.

12. Am I the sea, or a sea monster,that you set a guard over me?

13. When I say, ‘My bed will comfort me,my couch will ease my complaint,’

14. then you scare me with dreamsand terrify me with visions,

15. so that I would choose stranglingand death rather than my bones.
