Job 7:2-4

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

² Like a slave who longs for the shadow,
    and like labourers who look for their wages,
³ so I am allotted months of emptiness,
    and nights of misery are apportioned to me.
⁴ When I lie down I say, “When shall I rise?”
    But the night is long,
    and I am full of tossing until dawn.
