Job 7:2 in Context — Job 7
1 Por acaso o ser humano não tem um trabalho duro sobre a terra, e não são seus dias como os dias de um assalariado?
2 Como o servo suspira pela sombra, e como o assalariado espera por seu pagamento,
3 Assim também me deram por herança meses inúteis, e me prepararam noites de sofrimento.
4 Quando eu me deito, pergunto: Quando me levantarei? Mas a noite se prolonga, e me canso de me virar [na cama] até o amanhecer.
