Job Chapter 10 KJV
King James Version, Holy Bible
1 My soul is weary of my life; I will leave my complaint upon myself; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
2 I will say unto God, Do not condemn me; shew me wherefore thou contendest with me.
3 Is it good unto thee that thou shouldest oppress, that thou shouldest despise the work of thine hands, and shine upon the counsel of the wicked?
4 Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth?
5 Are thy days as the days of man? are thy years as man's days,
6 That thou enquirest after mine iniquity, and searchest after my sin?
Job Chapter 4 (Old Testament)
7 Thou knowest that I am not wicked; and there is none that can deliver out of thine hand.
8 Thine hands have made me and fashioned me together round about; yet thou dost destroy me.
9 Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast made me as the clay; and wilt thou bring me into dust again?
10 Hast thou not poured me out as milk, and curdled me like cheese?
11 Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh, and hast fenced me with bones and sinews.
12 Thou hast granted me life and favour, and thy visitation hath preserved my spirit.
Job Chapter 4 (Old Testament)
13 And these things hast thou hid in thine heart: I know that this is with thee.
14 If I sin, then thou markest me, and thou wilt not acquit me from mine iniquity.
15 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;
16 For it increaseth. Thou huntest me as a fierce lion: and again thou shewest thyself marvellous upon me.
17 Thou renewest thy witnesses against me, and increasest thine indignation upon me; changes and war are against me.
18 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!
19 I should have been as though I had not been; I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.
20 Are not my days few? cease then, and let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,
21 Before I go whence I shall not return, even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;
22 A land of darkness, as darkness itself; and of the shadow of death, without any order, and where the light is as darkness.
JOB CHAPTER 10: The Inevitability of Death.
Memory verse: Job 10:21 Before I go whence I shall not return, even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;
This verse can serve as a reminder of the fragility and impermanence of life. We all will face death eventually, and this knowledge can be frightening and overwhelming. However, the verse can also be a reminder of the hope and comfort that we can find in our faith.
As Christians, we believe that death is not the end, but a transition to a new and eternal life with God. We can find hope and comfort in the promise of eternal life, and in the knowledge that our suffering and struggles in this life will one day be transformed into joy and peace in the presence of God.
Live purposefully to glorify God and honor Him with your existence while you still have the privilege to breathe and while you are still here. Because the life you live today affects where you will spend eternity.
