Life, Book of Job
Is not life on earth a drudgery, its days like those of a hireling?
Like a slave who longs for the shade, a hireling who waits for wages,
So I have been assigned months of futility, and troubled nights have been counted off for me.
When I lie down I say, “When shall I arise?” then the night drags on; I am filled with restlessness until the dawn.
My flesh is clothed with worms and scabs; my skin cracks and festers;
My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle; they come to an end without hope.
- Book of Job (7,1-6)

인생은 고역
인생은 땅 위에서 고역이요 그 나날은 날품팔이의 나날과 같지 않은가?
그늘을 애타게 바라는 종, 삯을 고대하는 품팔이꾼과 같지 않은가?
그렇게 나도 허망한 달들을 물려받고 고통의 밤들을 나누어 받았네.
누우면 ‘언제나 일어나려나?’ 생각하지만 저녁은 깊어 가고 새벽까지 뒤척거리기만 한다네.
내 살은 구더기와 흙먼지로 뒤덮이고 내 살갗은 갈라지고 곪아 흐른다네.
나의 나날은 베틀의 북보다 빠르게 희망도 없이 사라져 가는구려.
▥ 욥기(Book of Job)의 말씀 (7,1-6)
