Job 10:1
 Job 10:1 
New International Version (© 2011)
"I loathe my very life; therefore I will give free rein to my complaint and speak out in the bitterness of my soul.

King James Bible
My soul is weary of my life; I will leave my complaint upon myself; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.

American Standard Version
My soul is weary of my life; I will give free course to my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.

Young's Literal Translation
My soul hath been weary of my life, I leave off my talking to myself, I speak in the bitterness of my soul.

Job 10:1 Additional Translations
Clarke's Commentary on the Bible

My soul is weary of my life - Here is a proof that נפש nephesh does not signify the animal life, but the soul or immortal mind, as distinguished from חי chai, that animal life; and is a strong proof that Job believed in the distinction between these two principles; was no materialist; but, on the contrary, credited the proper immortality of the soul. This is worthy of observation. See Job 12:10.

I will leave my complaint - I still charge myself with the cause of my own calamities; and shall not charge my Maker foolishly: but I must deplore my wretched and forlorn state.
