Job 6:28 - Job 7:7

28 Now therefore be content, look upon me; for it is evident unto you if I lie.

Job 7
Intro: Job excuseth his desire of death -- He complaineth of his own restlessness and God's watchfulness.

1 Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also like the days of a hireling?

2 As a servant earnestly desireth the shadow, and as a hireling looketh for the reward of his work;

3 So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed to me.

4 When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am full of tossings to and fro unto the dawning of the day.

5 My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin is broken, and become loathsome.

6 My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are spent without hope.

7 Oh remember that my life is wind; mine eyes shall no more see good.
