17 “What is man that You [should] magnify him [and think him important]? And that You are concerned about him? 18 “And that You examine him every morning And try and test him every moment? 19 “Will You never turn Your gaze away from me [it plagues me], Nor let me alone until I swallow my spittle? 20 “If I have sinned, what [harm] have I done to You, O Watcher of mankind? Why have You set me as a target for You, So that I am a burden to myself? 21 “Why then do You not pardon my transgression And take away my sin and guilt? For now I will lie down in the dust; And You will seek me [diligently], but I will not be.” Job 7:17-21, Amplified Bible. Copyright © 2015 by The Lockman Foundation.
