JOB 7:1–6, engwebp
¹“Isn’t a man forced to labor on earth? Aren’t his days like the days of a hired hand?
²As a servant who earnestly desires the shadow, as a hireling who looks for his wages,
³so I am made to possess months of misery, wearisome nights are appointed to me.
⁴When I lie down, I say, ‘When will I arise, and the night be gone?’ I toss and turn until the dawning of the day.
⁵My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust. My skin closes up, and breaks out afresh.
⁶My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle, and are spent without hope.

They are carried over from the tags on the Korean Revised Version, which are matched by name inside chapters that already have collected evidence, and a verse where the English says “he” carries none. All await human review. They are a separate list from the source passages above. An empty list does not mean the entry is absent from the text.
