Job 10 (English Standard Version)

6 that you seek out my iniquity
and search for my sin,

9 Remember that you have made me like clay;

and curdle me like cheese?
11 You clothed me with skin and flesh,
and knit me together with bones and sinews.
12 You have granted me life and steadfast love,
and your care has preserved my spirit.
