Job 10:1-8

1 "I loathe my life; I will give free utterance to my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
2 I will say to God, Do not condemn me; let me know why you contend against me.
3 Does it seem good to you to oppress, to despise the work of your hands and favor the schemes of the wicked?
4 Do you have eyes of flesh? Do you see as humans see?
5 Are your days like the days of mortals, or your years like human years,
6 that you seek out my iniquity and search for my sin,
7 although you know that I am not guilty, and there is no one to deliver out of your hand?
8 Your hands fashioned and made me; and now you turn and destroy me.
