New International Reader's Version

Job 3:23-26 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

23. Why is life given to a man like me? God hasn't told me what will happen to me. He has surrounded me with nothing but trouble.

24. I sigh instead of eating food. Groans pour out of me like water.

25. What I was afraid of has come on me. What I worried about has happened to me.

26. I don't have any peace and quiet. I can't find any rest. All I have is trouble."
