Job Continues: Where Then Is My Hope?
1 “My spirit is broken; my days are oextinct;pthe graveyard is ready for me.
Job 17:14-16
14if I say to the pit, ‘You are my father,’and to the worm, ‘My mother,’ or ‘My sister,’
15where then is my hope?
Who will see my hope?
16Will it go down to the bars of qSheol?
Shall we rdescend together sinto the dust?”
Psalms 39:5
5Behold, you have made my days a few handbreadths,and tmy lifetime is as nothing before you.
Surely uall mankind stands as a mere breath! Selah
Psalms 90:5-10
5 You vsweep them away as with a flood; they are like wa dream,like xgrass that is renewed in the morning:
6in ythe morning it flourishes and is renewed;
in the evening it zfades and aawithers.
7 For we are brought to an end by your anger;
by your wrath we are dismayed.
8You have abset our iniquities before you,
our acsecret sins in the light of your presence.
9 For all our days pass away under your wrath;
we bring our years to an end like a sigh.
10The years of our life are seventy,
or even by reason of strength eighty;
yet their span ▼
▼Or pride
is but toil and trouble;they are soon gone, and we fly away.
Psalms 102:23
23 He has broken my strength in midcourse;he aehas shortened my days.
