Job Continues To Argue His Case With God

11 “As water evaporates from the sea,
And a river becomes parched and dried up,
12 So man lies down and does not rise.
Until the heavens are no longer,

That You would conceal me until Your wrath returns to You,
That You would set a limit for me and remember me!
