Job 33:21

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.

My body is clothed with worms and dirty scabs; my skin is broken and festering.

So I waste away like something rotten, like a garment eaten by moths.

You overpower him once for all, and he departs; you change his appearance and send him away.

My bones stick to my skin and my flesh; I have escaped alive with only the skin of my teeth.

When I refused to confess my sin, my whole body wasted away, while I groaned in pain all day long.

You severely discipline people for their sins; like a moth you slowly devour their strength. Surely all people are a mere vapor. (Selah)

For my days go up in smoke, and my bones are charred like a fireplace.

And at the end of your life you will groan when your flesh and your body are wasted away.

The roof of my mouth is as dry as a piece of pottery; my tongue sticks to my gums. You set me in the dust of death.
