'Days' in the Bible

When the days of their feasting were finished, Job would send for them and sanctify them; he would get up early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job thought, "Perhaps my children have sinned and cursed God in their hearts." This was Job's customary practice.

Then they sat down with him on the ground for seven days and seven nights, yet no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his pain was very great.

That night -- let darkness seize it; let it not be included among the days of the year; let it not enter among the number of the months!

"Does not humanity have hard service on earth? Are not their days also like the days of a hired man?

My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle and they come to an end without hope.

I loathe it; I do not want to live forever; leave me alone, for my days are a vapor!

For we were born yesterday and do not have knowledge, since our days on earth are but a shadow.

"My days are swifter than a runner, they speed by without seeing happiness.

Are your days like the days of a mortal, or your years like the years of a mortal,

Are not my days few? Cease, then, and leave me alone, that I may find a little comfort,

"Man, born of woman, lives but a few days, and they are full of trouble.

Since man's days are determined, the number of his months is under your control; you have set his limit and he cannot pass it.

If a man dies, will he live again? All the days of my hard service I will wait until my release comes.

All his days the wicked man suffers torment, throughout the number of the years that are stored up for the tyrant.

My spirit is broken, my days have faded out, the grave awaits me.

My days have passed, my plans are shattered, even the desires of my heart.

"Why are times not appointed by the Almighty? Why do those who know him not see his days?

"O that I could be as I was in the months now gone, in the days when God watched over me,

"Then I thought, 'I will die in my own home, my days as numerous as the grains of sand.

"And now my soul pours itself out within me; days of suffering take hold of me.

My heart is in turmoil unceasingly; the days of my affliction confront me.

then his flesh is restored like a youth's; he returns to the days of his youthful vigor.

If they obey and serve him, they live out their days in prosperity and their years in pleasantness.

You know, for you were born before them; and the number of your days is great!

And so Job died, old and full of days.
