Why is light given to those in misery, 

and life to the bitter of soul, 

to those who long for death that does not come, 

who search for it more than for hidden treasure, 

who are filled with gladness

and rejoice when they reach the grave?

Why is life given to a man

whose way is hidden,

whom God has hedged in?

For sighing has become my daily food; 

my groans pour out like water. 

What I feared has come upon me; 

what I dreaded has happened to me. 

I have no peace, no quietness, 

I have no rest, but only turmoil. 

Job 3:20 – 26

Have you journeyed to the springs of the sea or walked in the recesses of the deep?
