Job 3:20 Context

◄ Job 3:20 ►

Why is light given to the miserable, and life to the bitter of soul,

Context

20“Why is light given to him who suffers,
And life to the bitter of soul,

21Who long for death, but there is none,
And dig for it more than for hidden treasures,

22Who rejoice greatly,
And exult when they find the grave?

23“Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden,
And whom God has hedged in?

24“For my groaning comes at the sight of my food,
And my cries pour out like water.

25“For what I fear comes upon me,
And what I dread befalls me.

26“I am not at ease, nor am I quiet,
And I am not at rest, but turmoil comes.”
