If I sin ,
then thou markest me,
and thou wilt not acquit me from mine iniquity.
If I be wicked , woe unto me;
and if I be righteous ,
yet will I not lift up my head.
I am full of confusion;
For it increaseth .
Thou huntest me as a fierce lion:
and again thou shewest thyself marvellous upon me.
Thou renewest thy witnesses against me,
and increasest thine indignation upon me;
changes and war are against me.
Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb?
Oh that I had given up the ghost ,
and no eye had seen me!
I should have been as though I had not been;
I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.
Are not my days few? cease then, and let me alone , that I may take comfort a little,
Before I go whence I shall not return ,
even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;
A land of darkness, as darkness itself;
and of the shadow of death, without any order, and where the light is as darkness.
Job 10:14-22
