Job 10:13-22 - You Have Not Explained

13 But you've hidden these things in your heart I know this was your purpose: 14 If I sin, you watch me and won't acquit me for my iniquity. 15 ""Woe to me if I'm guilty! If I'm innocent, I cannot lift my head, because I am filled with disgrace. Look at my affliction! 16 But if I do lift up my head, you will hunt me like a lion! You will perform miracles in order to fight against me. 17 ""You have brought new witnesses against me, you're even more angry with me you've brought fresh troops to attack me!

18 So why did you bring me out from the womb? I wish I had died, before anyone had seen me, 19 as if I had never existed; carried from the womb to the grave. 20 My days are so few, aren't they? So leave me alone, then, so I can smile a little 21 before I go, never to return, leaving for the land of deep darkness and shadow. 22 It's a gloomy land, like deepest darkness; where there's no order, and where even the brightness is like darkness.'"
