Job 30:26
King James VersionSource notes
“When I looked for good, then evil came and when I waited for light, there came darkness.”
Context
23For I know thou wilt bring me death, and the house appointed for all living.
24Howbeit he will not stretch out hand to the grave, though they cry in his destruction.
25Did not I weep for him that was in trouble? was my soul grieved for the poor?
26When I looked for good, then evil came and when I waited for light, there came darkness.
27My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me.
28I went mourning without the sun: I stood up, I cried in the congregation.
29I am a brother to dragons, and a companion to owls.
