Job 3:24

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters.

“

Will You never turn Your gaze away from me,

Nor let me alone until I swallow my spittle?

You have fed them with the bread of tears,
And You have made them to drink tears in large measure.

For I have eaten ashes like bread
And mingled my drink with weeping

For the choir director; upon Aijeleth Hashshahar. A Psalm of David.

My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?

Far from my deliverance are the words of my

groaning.

When I kept silent about my sin, my body wasted away
Through my

groaning all day long.

I am benumbed and badly crushed;
I

groan because of the agitation of my heart.

All of us growl like bears,
And moan sadly like doves;
We hope for justice, but there is none,
For salvation, but it is far from us.

Even when I cry out and call for help,
He shuts out my prayer.

“Son of man, eat your bread with trembling and drink your water with quivering and anxiety.
