2.1 KiB
Job Frames His Plea to God
Chapter 10
-
"I am disgusted with my life. Let me complain freely. My bitter soul must complain.
-
I will say to God, 'Don't simply condemn me-- tell me the charge you are bringing against me.
-
What do you gain by oppressing me? Why do you reject me, the work of your own hands, while smiling on the schemes of the wicked?
-
Are your eyes like those of a human? Do you see things only as people see them?
-
Is your lifetime only as long as ours? Is your life so short
-
that you must quickly probe for my guilt and search for my sin?
-
Although you know I am not guilty, no one can rescue me from your hands.
-
"'You formed me with your hands; you made me, yet now you completely destroy me.
-
Remember that you made me from dust-- will you turn me back to dust so soon?
-
You guided my conception and formed me in the womb.
-
You clothed me with skin and flesh, and you knit my bones and sinews together.
-
You gave me life and showed me your unfailing love. My life was preserved by your care.
-
"'Yet your real motive-- your true intent--
-
was to watch me, and if I sinned, you would not forgive my guilt.
-
If I am guilty, too bad for me; and even if I'm innocent, I can't hold my head high, because I am filled with shame and misery.
-
And if I hold my head high, you hunt me like a lion and display your awesome power against me.
-
Again and again you witness against me. You pour out your growing anger on me and bring fresh armies against me.
-
"'Why, then, did you deliver me from my mother's womb? Why didn't you let me die at birth?
-
It would be as though I had never existed, going directly from the womb to the grave.
-
I have only a few days left, so leave me alone, that I may have a moment of comfort
-
before I leave--never to return-- for the land of darkness and utter gloom.
-
It is a land as dark as midnight, a land of gloom and confusion, where even the light is dark as midnight.'"
