Job 3:13
Douay-Rheims
For now I should have been asleep and still, and should have rest in my sleep.
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown
lain . . . quiet . . . slept--a gradation. I should not only have lain, but been quiet, and not only been quiet, but slept. Death in Scripture is called "sleep" (Psa 13:3); especially in the New Testament, where the resurrection-awakening is more clearly set forth (Co1 15:51; Th1 4:14; Th1 5:10).
