Job 30:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
30 1 Job complaineth that he is contemned of the most contemptible, 11, 21 because of his adversity and affliction. 23 Death is the house of all flesh.
1 But now they that are younger than I, [a]mock me: yea, they whose fathers I have refused to set with the [b]dogs of my flocks.
2 For whereto should the strength of their hands have served me, seeing age [c]perished in them?
3 For poverty and famine they were solitary, fleeing into the wilderness, which is dark, desolate and waste.

Job 30:1-3
New International Version
30 “But now they mock me,(A)
men younger than I,
whose fathers I would have disdained
to put with my sheep dogs.(B)
2 Of what use was the strength of their hands to me,
since their vigor had gone from them?
3 Haggard from want and hunger,
they roamed[a] the parched land(C)
in desolate wastelands(D) at night.(E)
