Job 7:12 in Context — Job 7
10 Il ne reviendra plus dans sa maison, Et le lieu qu’il habitait ne le connaîtra plus.
11 C’est pourquoi je ne retiendrai point ma bouche, Je parlerai dans l’angoisse de mon cœur, Je me plaindrai dans l’amertume de mon âme.
12 Suis-je une mer, ou un monstre marin, Pour que tu établisses des gardes autour de moi?
13 Quand je dis: Mon lit me soulagera, Ma couche calmera mes douleurs,
14 C’est alors que tu m’effraies par des songes, Que tu m’épouvantes par des visions.
