7O remember that my life is winde: mine eye shall no more see good. 8The eye of him that hath seene me, shall see mee no more: thine eyes are vpon me, and I am not. 9As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth downe to the graue, shall come vp no more. 10Hee shall returne no more to his house: neither shall his place know him any more. 11Therefore I will not refraine my mouth, I wil speake in the anguish of my spirit, I will complaine in the bitternesse of my soule.

Wesley's Notes for Job 7:9
7:9 No more - Never until the general resurrection. When we see a cloud which looked great, as if it would eclipse the sun, of a sudden dispersed and disappearing, say, Just such a thing is the life of man, a vapour that appears for a while and then vanisheth away.
