job 7:3 So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed to me.

job 7:3 So am I allotted months of vanity, And nights of trouble are appointed me.

3.--Months of comfortless misfortune.
I am made to possess--literally, "to be heir to." Irony. "To be heir to," is usually a matter of joy; but here it is the entail of an involuntary and dismal inheritance.
Months--for days, to express its long duration.
Appointed--literally, "they have numbered to me"; marking well the unavoidable doom assigned to him.

job 7:3 So am I allotted months of vanity, And nights of trouble are appointed me.
