Job 7:19-21

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁹ Will you not look away from me for a while,
    let me alone until I swallow my spittle?
²⁰ If I sin, what do I do to you, you watcher of humanity?
    Why have you made me your target?
    Why have I become a burden to you?
²¹ Why do you not pardon my transgression
    and take away my iniquity?
For now I shall lie in the earth;
    you will seek me, but I shall not be.’
