Job 7:2-4
International Standard Version

2 I’m like a servant who longs for the shade,
    like a hired laborer who is looking for his wages.
3 Truly I’ve been allotted months of emptiness;
    nights of trouble have been appointed for me.

4 “When I lie down I ask,
    ‘When will I wake up?’
But the night continues
    and I keep tossing and turning until dawn.[a]

Job 7:2-4
New International Version

2 Like a slave longing for the evening shadows,(A)
    or a hired laborer waiting to be paid,(B)
3 so I have been allotted months of futility,
    and nights of misery have been assigned to me.(C)
4 When I lie down I think, ‘How long before I get up?’(D)
    The night drags on, and I toss and turn until dawn.(E)
