New Living Translation (NLT)
Job 30
25 Did I not weep for those in trouble? Was I not deeply grieved for the needy?
26 So I looked for good, but evil came instead. I waited for the light, but darkness fell.
27 My heart is troubled and restless. Days of suffering torment me.
28 I walk in gloom, without sunlight. I stand in the public square and cry for help.
29 Instead, I am considered a brother to jackals and a companion to owls.
30 My skin has turned dark, and my bones burn with fever.
31 My harp plays sad music, and my flute accompanies those who weep.
Job 31
1 “I made a covenant with my eyes not to look with lust at a young woman.
2 For what has God above chosen for us? What is our inheritance from the Almighty on high?
3 Isn’t it calamity for the wicked and misfortune for those who do evil?
4 Doesn’t he see everything I do and every step I take?
