Job 10:21

Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it; let a cloud dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it. stain: or, challenge let the...: or, let them terrify it, as those who have a bitter day

But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return. a few...: Heb. years of number

But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he? wasteth...: Heb. is weakened, or, cut off As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up: So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep. O that thou wouldest hide me in the grave, that thou wouldest keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me! If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.

The eye of him that hath seen me shall see me no more: thine eyes are upon me, and I am not. I am...: that is, I can live no longer As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more. He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more.

Neither said they, Where is the LORD that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, that led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of pits, through a land of drought, and of the shadow of death, through a land that no man passed through, and where no man dwelt?

I said, I shall not see the LORD, even the LORD, in the land of the living: I shall behold man no more with the inhabitants of the world.

Shall thy lovingkindness be declared in the grave? or thy faithfulness in destruction? Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?

For now should I have lain still and been quiet, I should have slept: then had I been at rest,

For we must needs die, and are as water spilt on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again; neither doth God respect any person: yet doth he devise means, that his banished be not expelled from him. neither...: or, because God hath not taken away his life, he hath also devised means, etc

Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps.
