Job 7:1-3

International Standard Version

7 “Men have harsh servitude on earth, do they not?
    His days are like those of a hired laborer, are they not?^[a]
2 I’m like a servant who longs for the shade,
    like a hired laborer who is looking for his wages.
³ Truly I’ve been allotted months of emptiness;
    nights of trouble have been appointed for me.
