Глава 7

  • 1. Is there not an appointed time to man vpon earth? are not his dayes also like the dayes of an hireling?
  • 2. As a seruant earnestly desireth the shadow, and as an hireling looketh for the reward of his worke:
  • 3. So am I made to possesse moneths of vanitie, and wearisome nights are appointed to me.
  • 4. When I lie downe, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am full of tossings to and fro, vnto the dawning of the day.
  • 5. My flesh is cloathed with wormes and clods of dust, my skinne is broken, and become loathsome.
  • 6. My dayes are swifter then a weauers shuttle, and are spent without hope.
  • 7. O remember that my life is winde: mine eye shall no more see good.
  • 8. The eye of him that hath seene me, shall see mee no more: thine eyes are vpon me, and I am not.
  • 9. As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth downe to the graue, shall come vp no more.
  • 10. Hee shall returne no more to his house: neither shall his place know him any more.
  • 11. Therefore I will not refraine my mouth, I wil speake in the anguish of my spirit, I will complaine in the bitternesse of my soule.
  • 12. Am I a sea, or a whale, that thou settest a watch ouer me?
  • 13. When I say, My bed shal comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint:
  • 14. Then thou skarest mee with dreames, and terrifiest me through visions.
  • 15. So that my soule chooseth strangling: and death rather then my life.
  • 16. I loath it, I would not liue alway: let me alone, for my dayes are vanitie.
  • 17. What is man, that thou shouldest magnifie him? and that thou shouldest set thine heart vpon him?
  • 18. And that thou shouldest visite him euery morning, and trie him euery moment?
  • 19. How long wilt thou not depart from me? nor let me alone till I swallow downe my spittle?
  • 20. I haue sinned, what shall I doe vnto thee, O thou preseruer of men? why hast thou set me as a mark against thee, so that I am a burden to my selfe?
  • 21. And why doest thou not pardon my transgression, and take away mine iniquitie? for now shall I sleepe in the dust, and thou shalt seeke me in the morning, but I shall not be.
