## Job 17:15-16 in Context (Verses 12–16 KJV)
 
 [12 ](/kjv/job/17/12) They change the night into day: the light *is* short because of darkness.*
 
 [13 ](/kjv/job/17/13) If I wait, the grave *is* mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness.
 
 [14 ](/kjv/job/17/14) I have said to corruption, Thou *art* my father: to the worm, *Thou art* my mother, and my sister.*
 
 [15 ](/kjv/job/17/15) And where *is* now my hope? as for my hope, who shall see it?
 
 [16 ](/kjv/job/17/16) They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when *our* rest together *is* in the dust.
 
[Job 16](/kjv/job/16) [Job 18](/kjv/job/18)
