Chap. XVII. For the greuousnes of bis paine iob expecteth speedie death, 4. chargeth his freindes with folie for holding only remuneration in this life. 6. himself hopeth happie rest in the other world.

1   My spirit shal be extenuated, my daies shal be shortened, and the graue only remaineth for me.

2   I haue notenot sinned, and mine eie abideth in bitternesse.

3   Deliuer me, and set me beside thee, and let anie mans hand fight against me.

4   Thou hast made their hart far from discipline, and therfore they shal not be exalted.

5   He promiseth a praye to his felowes, and the eies of his children shal faile.

6   He hath set me as it were for a prouerbe of the comon people, and I am an example before them.

7   Mine eie is dimne for indignation, and my members are brought as it were to nothing.

8   The iust shal be astonied vpon this, and the innocent shal be raised vp against the hypocrite.

9   And the iust shal hold his way, and with cleane handes shal adde strength.

10   Be al you therfore conuerted, and come, and I shal not finde among you anie wiseman.

11   My daies haue passed, my cogitations are dissipated, tormenting my hart:

12   Night they haue turned into day, and againe after darkenesse I hope for light.

13   If I shal expect, note note hel is my house, and in darkenesse I haue made my bed.

14   I haue sayd to rottenes: Thou art my father, my mother, and my sister, to wormes.

15   Where is now then my expectation, and my patience who considereth.

16   Al my thinges shal descend into most deepe hel: there at the least, shal I haue rest thinkest thou?
