Job 3:20
World English Bible (WEB)
“Why is light given to him who is in misery, life to the bitter in soul,
In context
18 There the prisoners are at ease together. They don’t hear the voice of the taskmaster.
19 The small and the great are there. The servant is free from his master.
20 “Why is light given to him who is in misery, life to the bitter in soul,
21 who long for death, but it doesn’t come; and dig for it more than for hidden treasures,
22 who rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they can find the grave?
