Job 7:17

¹⁵ so that I would prefer strangling and death over my life in this body.

¹⁶ I loathe my life! I would not live forever. Leave me alone, for my days are but a breath.

What is man that You should exalt him, that You should set Your heart upon him,

¹⁸ that You attend to him every morning, and test him every moment?

¹⁹ Will You never look away from me, or leave me alone to swallow my spittle?
