Job 3:23-26
New International Version
23 Why is life given to a man
whose way is hidden,(A)
whom God has hedged in?(B)
24 For sighing(C) has become my daily food;(D)
my groans(E) pour out like water.(F)
25 What I feared has come upon me;
what I dreaded(G) has happened to me.(H)
26 I have no peace,(I) no quietness;
I have no rest,(J) but only turmoil.”(K)
Job 3:23-26
King James Version
23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in?
24 For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters.
25 For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.
26 I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet; yet trouble came.
