Job Continues To Argue His Case With God

11 As the waters fail from the sea, and a river falls away and dries up, 12 so man lies down and does not rise. Till the heavens are no more, they shall not awake, nor be awakened out of their sleep. 13 Who will grant that You would hide me in the grave, that You would keep me secret, until Your wrath is past, that You would set me a fixed time and remember me?
