the thing that I long for
Job 6:11-13
11
What is my strength, that I should hope? and what is mine end, that I should prolong my life?
12
Is my strength the strength of stones? or is my flesh of brass?
13
Is not my help in me? and is wisdom driven quite from me?
Job 17:14-16
14
I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister.
15
And where is now my hope? as for my hope, who shall see it?
16
They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when our rest together is in the dust.
Psalm 119:81
CAPH. My soul fainteth for thy salvation: but I hope in thy word.
