Let destruction take the day of my birth, and the night on which it was said, A man child has come into the world.

That day--let it be dark; let not God take note of it from on high, and let not the light be shining on it;

If only darkness had taken that night away!
May it not appear among the days of the year
or be listed in the calendar.

Why did death not take me when I came out of my mother's body, why did I not, when I came out, give up my last breath?

Why did the knees take me, or why the breasts that they might give me milk?

By the breath of God destruction takes them, and by the wind of his wrath they are cut off.

And a word shall be brought to me by stealth, and mine ear will take a transient sound from it

Between morning and evening they are completely broken; they come to an end for ever, and no one takes note.

Is not their excess wealth taken away from them? They die, yet without attaining wisdom.

Now his children have no safe place, and they are crushed before the judges, for no one takes up their cause.

Whose harvest the hungry eats up, and takes it even out of the thorns, and the robber swallows up their wealth.

Which destroyeth the devices of the subtle, so that they are not able to perform the things that they take in hand;

He takes the wise in their own craftiness: and the counsel of the cunning is quickly ended.

You will come to your last resting-place in full strength, as the grain is taken up to the crushing-floor in its time.

Lo, this we ourselves have proved by experience, and even this it is. Hearken thou to it also, that thou mayest take heed to thyself."

Do ye take deliberacy to check men's sayings, and judge a poor word spoken in vain?

I do not take notice of myself;
I despise my life.

You will not let me be clear of sin! why then do I take trouble for nothing?

For He is not a man like me, that I can answer Him,
that we can take each other to court.

Let him take his rod away from me, and let not his fear terrify me:

That you take note of my sin, searching after my wrongdoing,

Though you see that I am not an evil-doer; and there is no one who is able to take a man out of your hands?

Thy hands have taken pains about me, And they make me together round about, And Thou swallowest me up!

If I sin, then You would take note of me,
And would not acquit me of my guilt.

Why then did you make me come out of my mother's body? It would have been better for me to have taken my last breath, and for no eye to have seen me,

And for me to have been as if I had not been; to have been taken from my mother's body straight to my last resting-place.

Are not my days few? cease then, and let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,

Wilt thou say unto God, 'The thing that I take in hand is perfect, and I am clean in thy sight'?

But if only God would take up the word, opening his lips in argument with you;

Would God ye kept your tongue, that ye might be taken for wise men!

Give ear to the argument of my mouth, and take note of the words of my lips.

Why do I take my flesh in my teeth, and put my life in my hand?

Is any one able to take up the argument against me? If so, I would keep quiet and give up my breath.

Thy hand - from off me, take thou far away, and, thy terror, let it not startle me!

Do You really take notice of one like this?
Will You bring me into judgment against You?

Let your eyes be turned away from him, and take your hand from him, so that he may have pleasure at the end of his day, like a servant working for payment.

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.

For then You would count my steps
but would not take note of my sin.

Yea, you do away with fear, and take away prayer before God.

For your mouth is guided by your sin, and you have taken the tongue of the false for yourself.

Were you present at the secret meeting of God? and have you taken all wisdom for yourself?

What -- doth thine heart take thee away? And what -- are thine eyes high?

How much less one who is disgusting and unclean, a man who takes in evil like water!

Virtuous men therefore shall well consider this, and the innocent shall take part against the hypocrite.

Why are we considered as animals? [Why] are we taken as stupid in your eyes?

The trap shall take him by the heel, and a snare shall lay hold of him.

Be certain that it is God who has done me wrong, and has taken me in his net.

Truly, I make an outcry against the violent man, but there is no answer: I give a cry for help, but no one takes up my cause.

He has stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head.

He hath ruined me on every side, and I am gone, and he hath taken away - like a tree - my hope;

He has taken my brothers far away from me; they have seen my fate and have become strange to me.

The servants and maids of mine own house take me for a stranger, and I am become as an alien in their sight.

“As for me, I know that my Redeemer lives,
And at the last He will take His stand on the earth.

Though he takes care of it, and does not let it go, but keeps it still in his mouth;

He takes down wealth as food, and sends it up again; it is forced out of his stomach by God.

He takes the poison of snakes into his mouth, the tongue of the snake is the cause of his death.

He is forced to give back the fruit of his work, and may not take it for food; he has no joy in the profit of his trading.

Because he has oppressed and has forsaken the poor; because he has violently taken away a house which he built not;

The arrow shall be taken forth, and go out at his back; and a glistering sword through the gall of him. Fear shall come upon him.
