JOB 30:17 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
Job 30:16Job 30:18
My bones are pierced in me in the night season: and my sinews take no rest.
The night racks my bones, and my gnawing pains never rest, depicting physical suffering that operates continuously, particularly at night when other distractions are absent. The racking of bones suggests intense physical pain affecting the skeleton. The gnawing pains never resting suggest continuous, unrelenting affliction. The specification of night suggests that darkness and solitude amplify suffering. The verse portrays suffering as ongoing and without respite.
