Job 15:22-24

The Voice

²²     Unsure that he will ever escape darkness,
        he lives ever-conscious of the sword.
²³     He wanders aimlessly in search of food.
        “Where is it?” he asks.^[a]
    He knows all the while that the great day of darkness is imminent.
²⁴     He is addled by strain and anxiety, terrified;
        he will be overwhelmed as if by a king about to descend upon his enemy in war.
