Job 7:2
Like a slave he longs for shade; like a hireling he waits for his wages.
As a servant earnestly desireth the shadow, and as an hireling looketh for the reward of his work:
Note earnestly…: Heb. gapeth after
As a servant who earnestly desires the shadow, as a hireling who looks for his wages,
As a servant that earnestly desireth the shadow, And as a hireling that looketh for his wages:
