1Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also like the days of an hireling?1הֲלֹא־ צָבָ֣א לֶאֱנ֣וֹשׁ [על־] (עֲלֵי־) אָ֑רֶץ וְכִימֵ֖י שָׂכִ֣יר יָמָֽיו׃
2As a servant earnestly desireth the shadow, and as an hireling looketh for the reward of his work:2כְּעֶ֥בֶד יִשְׁאַף־ צֵ֑ל וּ֝כְשָׂכִ֗יר יְקַוֶּ֥ה פָעֳלֽוֹ׃
3So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed to me.3כֵּ֤ן הָנְחַ֣לְתִּי לִ֭י יַרְחֵי־ שָׁ֑וְא וְלֵיל֥וֹת עָ֝מָ֗ל מִנּוּ־ לִֽי׃
4When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am full of tossings to and fro unto the dawning of the day.4אִם־ שָׁכַ֗בְתִּי וְאָמַ֗רְתִּי מָתַ֣י אָ֭קוּם וּמִדַּד־ עָ֑רֶב וְשָׂבַ֖עְתִּי נְדֻדִ֣ים עֲדֵי־ נָֽשֶׁף׃
5My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin is broken, and become loathsome.5לָ֘בַ֤שׁ בְּשָׂרִ֣י רִ֭מָּה [וגיש] (וְג֣וּשׁ) עָפָ֑ר עוֹרִ֥י רָ֝גַ֗ע וַיִּמָּאֵֽס׃
6My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are spent without hope.6יָמַ֣י קַ֭לּוּ מִנִּי־ אָ֑רֶג וַ֝יִּכְל֗וּ בְּאֶ֣פֶס תִּקְוָֽה׃
7O remember that my life is wind: mine eye shall no more see good.7זְ֭כֹר כִּי־ ר֣וּחַ חַיָּ֑י לֹא־ תָשׁ֥וּב עֵ֝ינִ֗י לִרְא֥וֹת טֽוֹב׃
8The eye of him that hath seen me shall see me no more: thine eyes are upon me, and I am not.8לֹֽא־ תְ֭שׁוּרֵנִי עֵ֣ין רֹ֑אִי עֵינֶ֖יךָ בִּ֣י וְאֵינֶֽנִּי׃
9As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more.9כָּלָ֣ה עָ֭נָן וַיֵּלַ֑ךְ כֵּ֥ן יוֹרֵ֥ד שְׁ֝א֗וֹל לֹ֣א יַעֲלֶֽה׃
10He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more.10לֹא־ יָשׁ֣וּב ע֣וֹד לְבֵית֑וֹ וְלֹא־ יַכִּירֶ֖נּוּ ע֣וֹד מְקֹמֽוֹ׃
11Therefore I will not refrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.11גַּם־ אֲנִי֮ לֹ֤א אֶחֱשָׂ֫ךְ פִּ֥י אֲ‍ֽ֭דַבְּרָה בְּצַ֣ר רוּחִ֑י אָ֝שִׂ֗יחָה בְּמַ֣ר נַפְשִֽׁי׃
12Am I a sea, or a whale, that thou settest a watch over me?12הֲ‍ֽיָם־ אָ֭נִי אִם־ תַּנִּ֑ין כִּֽי־ תָשִׂ֖ים עָלַ֣י מִשְׁמָֽר׃
13When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint;13כִּֽי־ אָ֭מַרְתִּי תְּנַחֲמֵ֣נִי עַרְשִׂ֑י יִשָּׂ֥א בְ֝שִׂיחִ֗י מִשְׁכָּבִֽי׃
14Then thou scarest me with dreams, and terrifiest me through visions:14וְחִתַּתַּ֥נִי בַחֲלֹמ֑וֹת וּֽמֵחֶזְיֹנ֥וֹת תְּבַעֲתַֽנִּי׃
15So that my soul chooseth strangling, and death rather than my life.15וַתִּבְחַ֣ר מַחֲנָ֣ק נַפְשִׁ֑י מָ֝֗וֶת מֵֽעַצְמוֹתָֽי׃
16I loathe it; I would not live alway: let me alone; for my days are vanity.16מָ֭אַסְתִּי לֹא־ לְעֹלָ֣ם אֶֽחְיֶ֑ה חֲדַ֥ל מִ֝מֶּ֗נִּי כִּי־ הֶ֥בֶל יָמָֽי׃
17What is man, that thou shouldest magnify him? and that thou shouldest set thine heart upon him?17מָֽה־ אֱ֭נוֹשׁ כִּ֣י תְגַדְּלֶ֑נּוּ וְכִי־ תָשִׁ֖ית אֵלָ֣יו לִבֶּֽךָ׃
18And that thou shouldest visit him every morning, and try him every moment?18וַתִּפְקְדֶ֥נּוּ לִבְקָרִ֑ים לִ֝רְגָעִ֗ים תִּבְחָנֶֽנּוּ׃
19How long wilt thou not depart from me, nor let me alone till I swallow down my spittle?19כַּ֭מָּה לֹא־ תִשְׁעֶ֣ה מִמֶּ֑נִּי לֹֽא־ תַ֝רְפֵּ֗נִי עַד־ בִּלְעִ֥י רֻקִּֽי׃
20I have sinned; what shall I do unto thee, O thou preserver of men? why hast thou set me as a mark against thee, so that I am a burden to myself?20חָטָ֡אתִי מָ֤ה אֶפְעַ֨ל ׀ לָךְ֮ נֹצֵ֪ר הָאָ֫דָ֥ם לָ֤מָה שַׂמְתַּ֣נִי לְמִפְגָּ֣ע לָ֑ךְ וָאֶהְיֶ֖ה עָלַ֣י לְמַשָּֽׂא׃
21And why dost thou not pardon my transgression, and take away mine iniquity? for now shall I sleep in the dust; and thou shalt seek me in the morning, but I shall not be.21וּמֶ֤ה ׀ לֹא־ תִשָּׂ֣א פִשְׁעִי֮ וְתַעֲבִ֪יר אֶת־ עֲוֺ֫נִ֥י כִּֽי־ עַ֭תָּה לֶעָפָ֣ר אֶשְׁכָּ֑ב וְשִׁ֖חֲרְתַּ֣נִי וְאֵינֶֽנִּי׃ פ
