Job 17:12-16
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 17
12
They make night into day,
saying,
‘The light is near,’ in the presence of darkness.
13
If I hope for Sheol as my home,
I make my bed in the darkness;
14
If
I call to the grave, ‘You are my father’;
To the maggot, ‘my mother and my sister’;
15
Where then is my hope?
And who looks at my hope?
16
Will it go down with me to Sheol?
Shall we together go down into the dust?'
King James Version
Chapter 17
12
They change the night into day: the light is short because of darkness.
13
If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness.
14
I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister.
15
And where is now my hope? as for my hope, who shall see it?
16
They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when our rest together is in the dust.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 17
12
They turned night into day
and made light seem near in the face of darkness.
13
If I await Sheol as my home,
spread out my bed in darkness,
14
and say to corruption, "You are my father,"
and to the maggot, "My mother" or "My sister,"
15
where then is my hope?
Who can see any hope for me?
16
Will it go down to the gates of Sheol,
or will we descend together to the dust?
New Living Translation
Chapter 17
12
These men say that night is day;
they claim that the darkness is light.
13
What if I go to the grave
and make my bed in darkness?
14
What if I call the grave my father,
and the maggot my mother or my sister?
15
Where then is my hope?
Can anyone find it?
16
No, my hope will go down with me to the grave.
We will rest together in the dust!'
English Standard Version
Chapter 17
12
They make night into day:
‘The light,’ they say, ‘is near to the darkness.’
13
If I hope for Sheol as my house,
if I make my bed in darkness,
14
if I say to the pit, ‘You are my father,’
and to the worm, ‘My mother,’ or ‘My sister,’
15
where then is my hope?
Who will see my hope?
16
Will it go down to the bars of Sheol?
Shall we descend together into the dust?"
New International Version
Chapter 17
12
turn night into day;
in the face of the darkness light is near.
13
If the only home I hope for is the grave,
if I spread out my bed in the realm of darkness,
14
if I say to corruption, ‘You are my father,’
and to the worm, ‘My mother’ or ‘My sister,’
15
where then is my hope—
who can see any hope for me?
16
Will it go down to the gates of death?
Will we descend together into the dust?"
New King James Version
Chapter 17
12
They change the night into day;
‘The light
is
near,’
they say,
in the face of darkness.
13
If I wait
for
the grave
as
my house,
If I make my bed in the darkness,
14
If I say to corruption, ‘You
are
my father,’
And to the worm, ‘You
are
my mother and my sister,’
15
Where then
is
my hope?
As for my hope, who can see it?
16
Will
they go down to the gates of Sheol?
Shall
we have
rest together in the dust?”
