[1] “My soul is weary of my life.
I will give free course to my complaint.
I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
[2] I will tell God, ‘Do not condemn me.
Show me why you contend with me.
[3] Is it good to you that you should oppress,
that you should despise the work of your hands,
and smile on the counsel of the wicked?
[4] Do you have eyes of flesh?
Or do you see as man sees?
[5] Are your days as the days of mortals,
or your years as man’s years,
[6] that you inquire after my iniquity,
and search after my sin?
[7] Although you know that I am not wicked,
there is no one who can deliver out of your hand. [8] “‘Your hands have framed me and fashioned me altogether,
yet you destroy me.
[9] Remember, I beg you, that you have fashioned me as clay.
Will you bring me into dust again?
[10] Haven’t you poured me out like milk,
and curdled me like cheese?
[11] You have clothed me with skin and flesh,
and knit me together with bones and sinews.
[12] You have granted me life and loving kindness.
Your visitation has preserved my spirit.
[13] Yet you hid these things in your heart.
I know that this is with you:
[14] if I sin, then you mark me.
You will not acquit me from my iniquity.
[15] If I am wicked, woe to me.
If I am righteous, I still will not lift up my head,
being filled with disgrace,
and conscious of my affliction.
[16] If my head is held high, you hunt me like a lion.
Again you show yourself powerful to me.
[17] You renew your witnesses against me,
and increase your indignation on me.
Changes and warfare are with me. [18] “‘Why, then, have you brought me out of the womb?
I wish I had given up the spirit, and no eye had seen me.
[19] I should have been as though I had not been.
I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.
[20] Aren’t my days few?
Stop!
Leave me alone, that I may find a little comfort,
[21] before I go where I will not return from,
to the land of darkness and of the shadow of death;
[22] the land dark as midnight,
of the shadow of death,
without any order,
where the light is as midnight.’”
King James Version
[1] My soul H5315 is weary H5354 of my life; H2416§
I will leave H5800 my complaint H7879 upon H5921 myself;
I will speak H1696 in the bitterness H4751 of my soul. H5315
[2] I will say H559 unto H413 God, H433 Do not H408 condemn H7561 me;
Shew H3045 me wherefore thou contendest H7378 with me.
[3] Is it good H2895 unto thee that thou shouldest oppress, H6231
That thou shouldest despise H3988 the work H3018 of thine hands, H3709
And shine H3313 upon H5921 the counsel H6098 of the wicked? H7563
[4] Hast thou eyes H5869 of flesh? H1320
Or seest H7200 thou as man H582 seeth? H7200
[5] Are thy days H3117 as the days H3117 of man? H582
Are thy years H8141 as man’s H1397 days, H3117
[6] That thou enquirest H1245 after mine iniquity, H5771
And searchest H1875 after my sin? H2403
[7] Thou knowest H1847§ that I am not wicked; H7561
And there is none that can deliver H5337 out of thine hand. H3027
[8] Thine hands H3027 have made H6087 me§ and fashioned H6213 me
Together H3162 round about; H5439 yet thou dost destroy H1104 me.
[9] Remember, H2142 I beseech thee, that thou hast made H6213 me as the clay; H2563
And wilt thou bring H7725 me into dust H6083 again? H7725
[10] Hast thou not poured me out H5413 as milk, H2461
And curdled H7087 me like cheese? H1385
[11] Thou hast clothed H3847 me with skin H5785 and flesh, H1320
And hast fenced H7753§ me with bones H6106 and sinews. H1517
[12] Thou hast granted H6213 me life H2416 and favour, H2617
And thy visitation H6486 hath preserved H8104 my spirit. H7307
[13] And these things hast thou hid H6845 in thine heart: H3824
I know H3045 that this is with thee.
[14] If I sin, H2398 then thou markest H8104 me,
And thou wilt not acquit H5352 me from mine iniquity. H5771
[15] If I be wicked, H7561 woe H480 unto me;
And if I be righteous, H6663 yet will I not lift up H5375 my head. H7218
I am full H7649 of confusion; H7036
Therefore see H7202 H7200 thou mine affliction; H6040
[16] For it increaseth. H1342 Thou huntest H6679 me as a fierce lion: H7826
And again H7725 thou shewest thyself marvellous H6381 upon me.
[17] Thou renewest H2318 thy witnesses H5707ⓘ against me,
And increasest H7235 thine indignation H3708 upon me; H5978
Changes H2487 and war H6635 are against me.
[18] Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth H3318 out of the womb? H7358
Oh that I had given up the ghost, H1478 and no eye H5869 had seen H7200 me!
[19] I should have been as though I had not been;
I should have been carried H2986 from the womb H990 to the grave. H6913
[20] Are not my days H3117 few? H4592 Cease H2308 H2308 then,
And let me alone, H7896 H7896 that I may take comfort H1082 a little, H4592
[21] Before I go H3212 whence I shall not return, H7725
Even to the land H776 of darkness H2822 and the shadow of death; H6757
[22] A land H776 of darkness, H5890 as darkness H652 itself;
And of the shadow of death, H6757 without any order, H5468
And where the light H3313 is as darkness. H652
