Job 3:13-19

^{Tools
13}

“For now I ^(A)would have lain down and been quiet;
I would have slept then, I would have been at rest,

^{Tools
14}

With ^(B)kings and with ^(C)counselors of the earth,
Who rebuilt ^(D)ruins for themselves;

^{Tools
15}

Or with ^(E)princes ^(F)who had gold,
Who were filling their houses with silver.

^{Tools
16}

“Or like a miscarriage which is ^(a)discarded, I would not be,
As infants that never saw light.

^{Tools
17}

“There the wicked cease from raging,
And there the ^(b)weary are at ^(G)rest.

^{Tools
18}

“The prisoners are at ease together;
They do not hear the voice of the taskmaster.

^{Tools
19}

“The small and the great are there,
And the slave is free from his master.
