Job 3:16-18
New International Reader's Version

16 Why wasn’t I buried like a baby who was born dead?
    Why wasn’t I buried like a child who never saw the light of day?
17 In the grave, sinful people don’t cause trouble anymore.
    And there tired people find rest.
18 Prisoners also enjoy peace there.
    They don’t hear a slave driver shouting at them anymore.

16 Or why was I not hidden away in the ground like a stillborn child,(A)
    like an infant who never saw the light of day?(B)
17 There the wicked cease from turmoil,(C)
    and there the weary are at rest.(D)
18 Captives(E) also enjoy their ease;
    they no longer hear the slave driver’s(F) shout.(G)
