Job 3:13-19
Christian Standard Bible
13 Now I would certainly be lying down in peace;
I would be asleep.(A)
Then I would be at rest(B)
14 with the kings and counselors(C) of the earth,
who rebuilt ruined cities for themselves,
15 or with princes who had gold,
who filled their houses(D) with silver.
16 Or why was I not hidden like a miscarried child,(E)
like infants who never see daylight?
17 There the wicked(F) cease to make trouble,
and there the weary find rest.
18 The captives are completely at rest;(G)
they do not hear a taskmaster’s voice.(H)
19 Both small and great are there,
and the slave is set free from his master.(I)
