Job 9:25-27

New Catholic Bible

²⁵ “My days pass more swiftly than a runner;
    they fly away without any experience of happiness.
²⁶ They skim past like boats of papyrus,
    like an eagle swooping upon its prey.
²⁷ If I say, ‘I will forget my complaints,
    I will put on a cheerful face instead of a sad countenance,’
