Job 30:22-31

22 You let the wind blow me away; you toss me about in a raging storm.

22 You snatch me up and drive me before the wind; you toss me about in the storm.

23 I know you are taking me off to my death, to the fate in store for everyone.

23 I know you will bring me down to death, to the place appointed for all the living.

24 Why do you attack a ruined man, one who can do nothing but beg for pity?

24 “Surely no one lays a hand on a broken man when he cries for help in his distress.

25 Didn't I weep with people in trouble and feel sorry for those in need?

25 Have I not wept for those in trouble? Has not my soul grieved for the poor?

26 I hoped for happiness and light, but trouble and darkness came instead.

26 Yet when I hoped for good, evil came; when I looked for light, then came darkness.

27 I am torn apart by worry and pain; I have had day after day of suffering.

27 The churning inside me never stops; days of suffering confront me.

28 I go about in gloom, without any sunshine; I stand up in public and plead for help.

28 I go about blackened, but not by the sun; I stand up in the assembly and cry for help.

29 My voice is as sad and lonely as the cries of a jackal or an ostrich.

29 I have become a brother of jackals, a companion of owls.

30 My skin has turned dark; I am burning with fever.

30 My skin grows black and peels; my body burns with fever.

31 Where once I heard joyful music, now I hear only mourning and weeping.

31 My lyre is tuned to mourning, and my pipe to the sound of wailing.
