Job 7:4

4 "When I 1lie down I say, 'When shall I arise?' But the night continues, And I am continually tossing until dawn.

Job 7:4 In-Context

2 "As a slave who pants for the shade, And as a hired man who eagerly waits for his wages,
3 So am I allotted months of vanity, And nights of trouble are appointed me.
4 "When I lie down I say, 'When shall I arise?' But the night continues, And I am continually tossing until dawn.
5 "My flesh is clothed with worms and a crust of dirt, My skin hardens and runs.
6 "My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, And come to an end without hope.
