ગુજરાતીઅયૂબ ૭:૧૬
મને કંટાળો આવે છે; મારે કાયમ માટે જીવવું નથી; મને એકલો રહેવા દો કેમ કે મારી જિંદગી વ્યર્થ છે.
हिन्दीअय्यूब ७:१६
मुझे अपने जीवन से घृणा आती है; मैं सर्वदा जीवित रहना नहीं चाहता। मेरा जीवनकाल साँस सा है, इसलिए मुझे छोड़ दे।

In context

14then you scare me with dreams and terrify me through visions,

15so that my soul chooses strangling, death rather than my bones.

16I loathe my life. I don’t want to live forever. Leave me alone, for my days are but a breath.

17What is man, that you should magnify him, that you should set your mind on him,

18that you should visit him every morning, and test him every moment?
