New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Job 3
19 "The small and the great are there, And the slave is free from his master.
20 "Why is light given to him who suffers, And life to the bitter of soul,
21 Who long for death, but there is none, And dig for it more than for hidden treasures,
22 Who rejoice greatly, And exult when they find the grave?
23 "Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden, And whom God has hedged in?
24 "For my groaning comes at the sight of my food, And my cries pour out like water.
25 "For what I fear comes upon me, And what I dread befalls me.
26 "I am not at ease, nor am I quiet, And I am not at rest, but turmoil comes."
Job 4
1 Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered,
2 "If one ventures a word with you, will you become impatient? But who can refrain from speaking?
3 "Behold you have admonished many, And you have strengthened weak hands.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
