King James Version (KJV)

Job 7:13

“When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint;”

Verse in context — Job 7

Therefore I will not refrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.

[Am] I a sea, or a whale, that thou settest a watch over me?

When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint;

Then thou scarest me with dreams, and terrifiest me through visions:

So that my soul chooseth strangling, [and] death rather than my life.

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