And the Satan said in answer to the Lord, Skin for skin, all a man has he will give for his life.

And the Lord said to the Satan, See, he is in your hands, only do not take his life.

Why does he give light to him who is in trouble, and life to the bitter in soul;

Is not your fear of God your support, and your upright way of life your hope?

O, keep in mind that my life is wind: my eye will never again see good.

I have no desire for life, I would not be living for ever! Keep away from me, for my days are as a breath.

I have done no wrong; I give no thought to what becomes of me; I have no desire for life.

My soul is tired of life; I will let my sad thoughts go free in words; my soul will make a bitter outcry.

Are not the days of my life small in number? Let your eyes be turned away from me, so that I may have a little pleasure,

And your life will be brighter than day; though it is dark, it will become like the morning.

Old men have wisdom, and a long life gives knowledge.

I will take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in my hand.

Will you be hard on a leaf in flight before the wind? will you make a dry stem go more quickly on its way?

For there is hope of a tree; if it is cut down, it will come to life again, and its branches will not come to an end.

If death takes a man, will he come to life again? All the days of my trouble I would be waiting, till the time came for me to be free.

His branch is cut off before its time, and his leaf is no longer green.

His bowmen come round about me; their arrows go through my body without mercy; my life is drained out on the earth.

How long will you make my life bitter, crushing me with words?

Why is life given to the evil-doers? why do they become old and strong in power?

But God by his power gives long life to the strong; he gets up again, though he has no hope of life.

By the life of God, who has taken away my right; and of the Ruler of all, who has made my soul bitter;

(For all my breath is still in me, and the spirit of God is my life;)

I will keep it safe, and will not let it go: my heart has nothing to say against any part of my life.

They are wasted for need of food, biting the dry earth; their only hope of life is in the waste land.

Did not God make him as well as me? did he not give us life in our mothers' bodies?

(For I did not let my mouth give way to sin, in putting a curse on his life;)

The spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Ruler of all gives me life.

To keep back his soul from the underworld, and his life from destruction.

And his soul comes near to the underworld, and his life to the angels of death.

And if he has mercy on him, and says, Let him not go down to the underworld, I have given the price for his life:

He kept my soul from the underworld, and my life sees the light in full measure.

Keeping back his soul from the underworld, so that he may see the light of life.

Truly, God gives up the hard-hearted, and will not give life to the sinner.

If they give ear to his voice, and do his word, then he gives them long life, and years full of pleasure.

They come to their end while they are still young, their life is short like that of those who are used for sex purposes in the worship of their gods.

A thick stick is no better than a leaf of grass, and he makes sport of the onrush of the spear.

And the Lord's blessing was greater on the end of Job's life than on its start: and so he came to have fourteen thousand sheep and goats, and six thousand camels, and two thousand oxen, and a thousand she-asses.

And after this Job had a hundred and forty years of life, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.
