Job 7:6

My days pass by, faster than a weaver's spindle [spins],
they come to an end without hope (thread – Hebr. tiqvah).
[Here is a clever play on words that links a weaver's spindle and hope. The word for hope (Hebr. tiqvah) comes from Hebr. qav, which means thread (Josh. 2:18, 21). The same connection exists in the similar word qavah, which means to wait and twist together like a thread. Job's life is coming to an end due to a lack of hope, but also like a thread that has run out, because the weaver has spun and woven so quickly!]
