  • Neh 5:1-6 : 1 Then there arose a great{H1419} cry{H6818} of the people{H5971} and of their wives{H802} against their brethren{H251} the Jews.{H3064} 2 For there were{H3426} that said,{H559} We, our sons{H1121} and our daughters,{H1323} are many:{H7227} let us get{H3947} grain,{H1715} that we may eat{H398} and live.{H2421} 3 Some also there were{H3426} that said,{H559} We are mortgaging{H6148} our fields,{H7704} and our vineyards,{H3754} and our houses:{H1004} let us get{H3947} grain,{H1715} because of the dearth.{H7458} 4 There were{H3426} also that said,{H559} We have borrowed{H3867} money{H3701} for the king's{H4428} tribute{H4060} [upon] our fields{H7704} and our vineyards.{H3754} 5 Yet now our flesh{H1320} is as the flesh{H1320} of our brethren,{H251} our children{H1121} as their children:{H1121} and, lo, we bring into bondage{H3533} our sons{H1121} and our daughters{H1323} to be servants,{H5650} and some of our daughters{H1323} are{H3426} brought into bondage{H3533} [already]: neither is it in our power{H410} to help it; for other men{H312} have our fields{H7704} and our vineyards.{H3754} 6 And I was very{H3966} angry{H2734} when I heard{H8085} their cry{H2201} and these words.{H1697}
  • Job 3:1-9 : 1 After{H310} this opened{H6605} Job{H347} his mouth,{H6310} and cursed{H7043} his day.{H3117} 2 And Job{H347} answered{H6030} and said:{H559} 3 Let the day{H3117} perish{H6} wherein I was born,{H3205} And the night{H3915} which said,{H559} There is a man-child{H1397} conceived.{H2029} 4 Let that day{H3117} be darkness;{H2822} Let not God{H433} from above{H4605} seek{H1875} for it, Neither let the light{H5105} shine{H3313} upon it. 5 Let darkness{H2822} and the shadow of death{H6757} claim{H1350} it for their own; Let a cloud{H6053} dwell{H7931} upon it; Let all that maketh black{H3650} the day{H3117} terrify{H1204} it. 6 As for that night,{H3915} let thick darkness{H652} seize{H3947} upon it: Let it not rejoice{H2302} among the days{H3117} of the year;{H8141} Let it not come{H935} into the number{H4557} of the months.{H3391} 7 Lo, let that night{H3915} be barren;{H1565} Let no joyful voice{H7445} come{H935} therein. 8 Let them curse{H5344} it that curse{H779} the day,{H3117} Who are ready{H6264} to rouse up{H5782} leviathan.{H3882} 9 Let the stars{H3556} of the twilight{H5399} thereof be dark:{H2821} Let it look{H6960} for light,{H216} but have none; Neither let it behold{H7200} the eyelids{H6079} of the morning:{H7837} 10 Because it shut not up{H5462} the doors{H1817} of my [mother's] womb,{H990} Nor hid{H5641} trouble{H5999} from mine eyes.{H5869} 11 Why died{H4191} I not from the womb?{H7358} Why did I not give up the ghost{H1478} when my mother{H990} bare{H3318} me? 12 Why did the knees{H1290} receive{H6923} me? Or why the breast,{H7699} that I should suck?{H3243} 13 For now should I have lain down{H7901} and been quiet;{H8252} I should have slept;{H3462} then had I been at rest,{H5117} 14 With kings{H4428} and counsellors{H3289} of the earth,{H776} Who built{H1129} up waste places{H2723} for themselves; 15 Or with princes{H8269} that had gold,{H2091} Who filled{H4390} their houses{H1004} with silver:{H3701} 16 Or as a hidden{H2934} untimely birth{H5309} I had not been, As infants{H5768} that never saw{H7200} light.{H216} 17 There the wicked{H7563} cease{H2308} from troubling;{H7267} And there the weary{H3019} are at rest.{H5117} 18 There the prisoners{H615} are at ease{H7599} together;{H3162} They hear{H8085} not the voice{H6963} of the taskmaster.{H5065} 19 The small{H6996} and the great{H1419} are there: And the servant{H5650} is free{H2670} from his master.{H113} 20 Wherefore is light{H216} given{H5414} to him that is in misery,{H6001} And life{H2416} unto the bitter{H4751} in soul;{H5315} 21 Who long{H2442} for death,{H4194} but it cometh not, And dig{H2658} for it more than for hid treasures;{H4301} 22 Who rejoice{H8056} exceedingly,{H1524} And are glad,{H7797} when they can find{H4672} the grave?{H6913} 23 [ Why is light given] to a man{H1397} whose way{H1870} is hid,{H5641} And whom God{H433} hath hedged in?{H5526} 24 For my sighing{H585} cometh{H935} before{H6440} I eat,{H3899} And my groanings{H7581} are poured out{H5413} like water.{H4325} 25 For the thing which I fear{H6342} cometh{H857} upon me, And that which I am afraid{H3025} of cometh{H935} unto me. 26 I am not at ease,{H8252} neither am I quiet,{H8252} neither have I rest;{H8252} But trouble{H7267} cometh.{H935}
