Job 7:16
World English Bible (WEB)
I loathe my life. I don’t want to live forever. Leave me alone, for my days are but a breath.
In context
14 then you scare me with dreams and terrify me through visions,
15 so that my soul chooses strangling, death rather than my bones.
16 I loathe my life. I don’t want to live forever. Leave me alone, for my days are but a breath.
17 What is man, that you should magnify him, that you should set your mind on him,
18 that you should visit him every morning, and test him every moment?
