Job 9:25-27

International Children’s Bible

²⁵ “My days go by faster than a runner.
    They fly away without my seeing even a little joy.
²⁶ They glide past like boats made of papyrus plants.
    My days are like eagles that swoop down on animals they attack.
²⁷ I might say, ‘I will forget my complaint.
    I will change the look on my face, and smile.’
