Job 7:19-21

Contemporary English Version

¹⁹ Won't you look away
just long enough
    for me to swallow?
²⁰ Why do you watch us so closely?
    What's it to you, if I sin?
Why am I your target
    and such a heavy burden?
²¹ Why do you refuse to forgive?
Soon you won't find me,
    because I'll be dead.
