King James Version (KJV)

Job 10:16

“For it increaseth. Thou huntest me as a fierce lion: and again thou shewest thyself marvellous upon me.”

Verse in context — Job 10

If I sin, then thou markest me, and thou wilt not acquit me from mine iniquity.

If I be wicked, woe unto me; and [if] I be righteous, [yet] will I not lift up my head. [I am] full of confusion; therefore see thou mine affliction;

For it increaseth. Thou huntest me as a fierce lion: and again thou shewest thyself marvellous upon me.

Thou renewest thy witnesses against me, and increasest thine indignation upon me; changes and war [are] against me.

Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? Oh that I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me!

A poetic exploration of suffering, faith, and God’s sovereignty.
