- My soul:
- "Wherefore¹ is lightª givenª° to him that is in misery,ª and lifeª unto the bitterª [in] soul;ª ... [Why is light given] to a manª whose¹ wayª is hid,ª° and whom¹ Godª hath hedged in?ª°" {Job 3:20-23} + "Oh that¹ I might¹ haveª° my request;ª and that Godª would grantª° [me] the thing that I long for!ª ... Even that it would pleaseª° Godª to destroyª° me; that he would let looseª° his hand,ª and cut me off!ª°" {Job 6:8-9} + "But he savethª° the poorª from the sword,ª¹ from their mouth,ª¹ and from the handª¹ of the mighty.ª ... So the poorª hath¹ hope,ª and iniquityª stoppethª° her mouth.ª" {Job 5:15-16} + "In famineª he shall redeemª° thee from death:ª¹ and in warª from the powerª¹ of the sword.ª" {Job 5:20} + "[Though] I¹ [were] perfect,ª [yet] would I not¹ knowª° my soul:ª I would despiseª° my life.ª" {Job 9:21} + "O that²°¹ thou wouldest¹ hideª° me in the grave,ª that thou wouldest keep me secret,ª° until¹ thy wrathª be past,ª° that thou wouldest appointª° me a set time,ª and rememberª° me!" {Job 14:13} + "And if¹ thou¹ dealª° thus¹ with me, killª° me, I pray thee,¹ out of hand,ª° if¹ I have foundª° favourª in thy sight;ª and let me not¹ seeª° my wretchedness.ª" {Num 11:15} + "But he himself¹ wentª° a day'sª journeyª into the wilderness,ª and cameª° and sat downª° under¹ aª juniper tree:ª and he requestedª°¹ for himselfª that he might die;ª° and said,ª° It is enough;ª now,¹ O LORD,ª take awayª° my life;ª for¹ I¹ [am] not¹ betterª than my fathers.ª¹" {1Kg 19:4} + "Therefore now,¹ O LORD,ª take,ª° I beseech thee,¹¹ my lifeª from¹ me; for¹ [it is] betterª for me to dieª than to live.ª¹" {Jna 4:3} + "And it came to pass,¹ when the sunª did arise,ª° that Godª preparedª° a vehementª eastª wind;ª and the sunª beatª° upon¹ the headª of Jonah,ª that he fainted,ª° and wishedª° in¹ himselfª to die,ª° and said,ª° [It is] betterª for me to dieª than to live.ª¹" {Jna 4:8}
