Job 7:9 in Context — Job 7

7 Souviens-toi que ma vie est un souffle! Mes yeux ne reverront pas le bonheur.

8 L’œil qui me regarde ne me regardera plus; Ton œil me cherchera, et je ne serai plus.

9 Comme la nuée se dissipe et s’en va, Celui qui descend au séjour des morts ne remontera pas;

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.
