Job 3:23 in Context — Job 3
21 Qui espèrent en vain la mort, Et qui la convoitent plus qu’un trésor,
22 Qui seraient transportés de joie Et saisis d’allégresse, s’ils trouvaient le tombeau?
23 A l’homme qui ne sait où aller, Et que Dieu cerne de toutes parts?
24 Mes soupirs sont ma nourriture, Et mes cris se répandent comme l’eau.
25 Ce que je crains, c’est ce qui m’arrive; Ce que je redoute, c’est ce qui m’atteint.
