Psalms 88:13-18
But unto thee, O Jehovah, have I cried; And in the morning shall my prayer come before thee.Jehovah, why castest thou off my soul? Why hidest thou thy face from me?I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: While I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.Thy fierce wrath is gone over me; Thy terrors have cut me off.They came round about me like water all the day long; They compassed me about together.Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, And mine acquaintance into darkness.

Lamentations 2:5-6
The Lord is become as an enemy, he hath swallowed up Israel; He hath swallowed up all her palaces, he hath destroyed his strongholds; And he hath multiplied in the daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.And he hath violently taken away his tabernacle, as if it were of a garden; he hath destroyed his place of assembly: Jehovah hath caused solemn assembly and sabbath to be forgotten in Zion, And hath despised in the indignation of his anger the king and the priest.

Job 1:13-19
And it fell on a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother’s house,that there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them;and the Sabeans fell upon them, and took them away: yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have taken them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother’s house;and, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.

Job 8:13-18
So are the paths of all that forget God; And the hope of the godless man shall perish:Whose confidence shall break in sunder, And whose trust is a spider’s web.He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: He shall hold fast thereby, but it shall not endure.He is green before the sun, And his shoots go forth over his garden.His roots are wrapped about the stone- heap, He beholdeth the place of stones.If he be destroyed from his place, Then it shall deny him, saying, I have not seen thee.

Psalms 102:11
My days are like a shadow that declineth; And I am withered like grass.
