Job 17:11-14
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 17
11My days are past, my plans are torn apart, The wishes of my heart. 12They make night into day, saying, ‘The light is near,’ in the presence of darkness. 13If 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’;King James Version
Chapter 17
11My days are past, my purposes are broken off, even the thoughts of my heart. 12They change the night into day: the light is short because of darkness. 13If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness. 14I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 17
11My days have slipped by; my plans have been ruined, even the things dear to my heart. 12They turned night into day and made light seem near in the face of darkness. 13If I await Sheol as my home, spread out my bed in darkness, 14and say to corruption, "You are my father," and to the maggot, "My mother" or "My sister,"New Living Translation
English Standard Version
Chapter 17
11My days are past; my plans are broken off, the desires of my heart. 12They make night into day: ‘The light,’ they say, ‘is near to the darkness.’ 13If I hope for Sheol as my house, if I make my bed in darkness, 14if I say to the pit, ‘You are my father,’ and to the worm, ‘My mother,’ or ‘My sister,’New International Version
Chapter 17
11My days have passed, my plans are shattered. Yet the desires of my heart 12turn night into day; in the face of the darkness light is near. 13If the only home I hope for is the grave, if I spread out my bed in the realm of darkness, 14if I say to corruption, 'You are my father,' and to the worm, 'My mother' or 'My sister,'New King James Version
