Job 17:14-16

International Children’s Bible

¹⁴ I might say to the grave, ‘You are my father.’
    And I might say to the worm, ‘You are my mother’ or ‘You are my sister.’
¹⁵ If these things are true, I have no hope.
    No one can see any hope for me.
¹⁶ Hope will go down to the gates of death.
    We will go down together into the dust.”
