## Job 3:17-18 in Context (Verses 14–21 KJV)
 
 [14 ](/kjv/job/3/14) With kings and counsellors of the earth, which built desolate places for themselves;
 
 [15 ](/kjv/job/3/15) Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver:
 
 [16 ](/kjv/job/3/16) Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants *which* never saw light.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/job/3/17) There the wicked cease *from* troubling; and there the weary be at rest.*
 
 [18 ](/kjv/job/3/18) *There* the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the oppressor.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/job/3/19) The small and great are there; and the servant *is* free from his master.
 
 [20 ](/kjv/job/3/20) Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter *in* soul;
 
 [21 ](/kjv/job/3/21) Which long for death, but it *cometh* not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures;*
 
[Job 2](/kjv/job/2) [Job 4](/kjv/job/4)
