Job 10

About Job Job wrestles with why the righteous suffer, through Job's losses, his friends' arguments and God's answer.

My soul is weary of my life; I will leave my complaint upon myself; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.SelectedJob 10:1Ask

I will say unto God, Do not condemn me; shew me wherefore thou contendest with me.SelectedJob 10:2Ask

Is it good unto thee that thou shouldest oppress, that thou shouldest despise the work of thine hands, and shine upon the counsel of the wicked?SelectedJob 10:3Ask

Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth?SelectedJob 10:4Ask

Are thy days as the days of man? are thy years as man’s days,SelectedJob 10:5Ask

That thou enquirest after mine iniquity, and searchest after my sin?SelectedJob 10:6Ask

Thou knowest that I am not wicked; and there is none that can deliver out of thine hand.SelectedJob 10:7Ask

Thine hands have made me and fashioned me together round about; yet thou dost destroy me.SelectedJob 10:8Ask

Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast made me as the clay; and wilt thou bring me into dust again?SelectedJob 10:9Ask

Hast thou not poured me out as milk, and curdled me like cheese?SelectedJob 10:10Ask

Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh, and hast fenced me with bones and sinews.SelectedJob 10:11Ask

Thou hast granted me life and favour, and thy visitation hath preserved my spirit.SelectedJob 10:12Ask

And these things hast thou hid in thine heart: I know that this is with thee.SelectedJob 10:13Ask

If I sin, then thou markest me, and thou wilt not acquit me from mine iniquity.SelectedJob 10:14Ask

If I be wicked, woe unto me; and if I be righteous, yet will I not lift up my head. I am full of confusion; therefore see thou mine affliction;SelectedJob 10:15Ask

For it increaseth. Thou huntest me as a fierce lion: and again thou shewest thyself marvellous upon me.SelectedJob 10:16Ask

Thou renewest thy witnesses against me, and increasest thine indignation upon me; changes and war are against me.SelectedJob 10:17Ask

Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? Oh that I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me!SelectedJob 10:18Ask

I should have been as though I had not been; I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.SelectedJob 10:19Ask

Are not my days few? cease then, and let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,SelectedJob 10:20Ask

Before I go whence I shall not return, even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;SelectedJob 10:21Ask

A land of darkness, as darkness itself; and of the shadow of death, without any order, and where the light is as darkness.SelectedJob 10:22Ask
