Job 17:13

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness.

If a man dies, shall he live [again]? All the days of my warfare I would wait till my release should come.

Wait for LORD. Be strong, and let thy heart take courage. Yea, wait thou for LORD.

LORD is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.

My spirit is consumed, my days are extinct, the grave is [ready] for me.

before I go where I shall not return, to the land of darkness and of the shadow of death,

For I know that thou will bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living.

If I ascend up into heaven, thou are there. If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, thou are there.

He enters into peace. They rest in their beds, each one who walks in his uprightness.

Therefore I turned about to cause my heart to despair concerning all the labor in which I had labored under the sun.

I said, In the noontide of my days I shall go into the gates of Sheol. I am deprived of the residue of my years.
