New Living Translation (NLT)
Job 10
10 You guided my conception and formed me in the womb.
11 You clothed me with skin and flesh, and you knit my bones and sinews together.
12 You gave me life and showed me your unfailing love. My life was preserved by your care.
13 “‘Yet your real motive— your true intent—
14 was to watch me, and if I sinned, you would not forgive my guilt.
15 If I am guilty, too bad for me; and even if I’m innocent, I can’t hold my head high, because I am filled with shame and misery.
16 And if I hold my head high, you hunt me like a lion and display your awesome power against me.
17 Again and again you witness against me. You pour out your growing anger on me and bring fresh armies against me.
18 “‘Why, then, did you deliver me from my mother’s womb? Why didn’t you let me die at birth?
19 It would be as though I had never existed, going directly from the womb to the grave.
20 I have only a few days left, so leave me alone, that I may have a moment of comfort
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
