17Job · Young's Literal Translation

¹My spirit hath been destroyed, My days extinguished--graves are for me.

²If not--mockeries are with me. And in their provocations mine eye lodgeth.

³Place, I pray Thee, my pledge with Thee; Who is he that striketh hand with me?

⁴For their heart Thou hast hidden From understanding, Therefore Thou dost not exalt them.

⁵For a portion he sheweth friendship, And the eyes of his sons are consumed.

⁶And he set me up for a proverb of the peoples, And a wonder before them I am.

⁷And dim from sorrow is mine eye, And my members as a shadow all of them.

⁸Astonished are the upright at this, And the innocent against the profane Stirreth himself up.

⁹And the righteous layeth hold on his way, And the clean of hands addeth strength, And--dumb are they all.

¹⁰Return, and come in, I pray you, And I find not among you a wise man.

¹¹My days have passed by, My devices have been broken off, The possessions of my heart!

¹²Night for day they appoint, Light is near because of darkness.

¹³If I wait--Sheol is my house, In darkness I have spread out my couch.

¹⁴To corruption I have called: --`Thou art my father.' `My mother' and `my sister' --to the worm.

¹⁵And where is now my hope? Yea, my hope, who doth behold it?

¹⁶To the parts of Sheol ye go down, If together on the dust we may rest.
