Job 7:13 in context

  1. 11“Therefore I will not keep silent.
    I will speak in the anguish of my spirit.
    I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
  2. 12Am I a sea, or a sea monster,
    that you put a guard over me?
  3. 13When I say, ‘My bed will comfort me.
    My couch will ease my complaint;’
  4. 14then you scare me with dreams,
    and terrify me through visions:
  5. 15so that my soul chooses strangling,
    death rather than my bones.
