Job 10:20 Cross References - Thomson

²⁰ Is not the term of my life of short duration? permit me to enjoy a little repose:

⁶ Though my life is swifter than a word; yet it is destroyed with vain hope. ⁷ Remember therefore that my life is but a breath; and that mine eyes shall never return again to see good.

¹⁶ For I am not to live forever, that I should bear patiently. Withdraw from me; for my life is vanity. ¹⁷ For what is man, that thou hast magnified him; or that thou payest attention to him? ¹⁸ Wilt thou keep a watch upon him till the morning. And judge him to the time of going to rest? ¹⁹ How long wilt thou not let me alone: nor let me go, that I may swallow my spittle? ²⁰ If I have sinned what can I do? thou who knowest the hearts of men; why hast thou set me up as thy mark to shoot at? Am I indeed a burden to thee? ²¹ Why hast thou not made an oblivion of my transgression; or a purification for my sin? Now therefore let me depart into the earth: and when thou risest in the morning, I am no more.

⁹ [for we are but of yesterday and know nothing; for our life on the earth is but a shadow]

²⁵ Now my days are swifter than a courier. They are gone without being perceived. ²⁶ Is there any track left by ships in their passage? Or of an eagle flying in pursuit of its prey?

²¹ withdraw thy hand from me: and let not the dread of thee overwhelm me with terror.

¹ He who is born of a woman waxeth old like a leathern bag: or like a garment which is moth eaten; for he is mortal, short lived and full of disquiet:

⁵ Behold thou hast made my days old; and mine existence is as nothing before thee. The universe; every man living is vanity.

¹³ O spare me that I may recover strength; before I go hence and be no more.

¹⁵ As for man, his days are like grass; like a flower of the field, so he may bloom. ¹⁶ Because a blast of wind passed over it, it is gone. It shall no more know its place.
