Job 10:20-22

New International Reader's Version

²⁰ Aren’t my few days almost over?
    Leave me so I can have a moment of joy.
²¹ Turn away before I go to the place I can’t return from.
    It’s the land of gloom and total darkness.
²² It’s the land of darkest night
    and total darkness and disorder.
    There even the light is like darkness.’ ”
