Job 3:16

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

Or why was I not hidden like a stillborn child, like an infant who never sees daylight?

In context

14 with kings and counselors of the earth, who built for themselves cities now in ruins,

15 or with princes who had gold, who filled their houses with silver.

16 Or why was I not hidden like a stillborn child, like an infant who never sees daylight?

17 There the wicked cease from raging, and there the weary find rest.

18 The captives enjoy their ease; they do not hear the voice of the oppressor.
