Job 7:17 in Context — Job 7
15 Ah! Je voudrais être étranglé! Je voudrais la mort plutôt que ces os!
16 Je les méprise!… je ne vivrai pas toujours… Laisse-moi, car ma vie n’est qu’un souffle.
17 Qu’est-ce que l’homme, pour que tu en fasses tant de cas, Pour que tu daignes prendre garde à lui,
18 Pour que tu le visites tous les matins, Pour que tu l’éprouves à tous les instants?
19 Quand cesseras-tu d’avoir le regard sur moi? Quand me laisseras-tu le temps d’avaler ma salive?
