1My soul5315 is weary5354 of my life2416; I will leave5800 my complaint7879 upon myself; I will speak1696 in the bitterness4751 of my soul5315.
2I will say559 unto God433, Do not condemn7561 me; shew3045 me wherefore thou contendest7378 with me.
3Is it good2895 unto thee that thou shouldest oppress6231, that thou shouldest despise3988 the work3018 of thine hands3709, and shine3313 upon the counsel6098 of the wicked7563?
4Hast thou eyes5869 of flesh1320? or seest7200 thou as man582 seeth7200?
5Are thy days3117 as the days3117 of man582? are thy years8141 as man's1397 days3117,
6That thou enquirest1245 after mine iniquity5771, and searchest1875 after my sin2403?
7Thou knowest1847 that I am not wicked7561; and there is none that can deliver5337 out of thine hand3027.
8Thine hands3027 have made6087 me and fashioned6213 me together3162 round about5439; yet thou dost destroy1104 me.
9Remember2142, I beseech thee, that thou hast made6213 me as the clay2563; and wilt thou bring7725 me into dust6083 again7725?
10Hast thou not poured me out5413 as milk2461, and curdled7087 me like cheese1385?
11Thou hast clothed3847 me with skin5785 and flesh1320, and hast fenced7753 me with bones6106 and sinews1517.
12Thou hast granted6213 me life2416 and favour2617, and thy visitation6486 hath preserved8104 my spirit7307.
13And these things hast thou hid6845 in thine heart3824: I know3045 that this is with thee.
14If I sin2398, then thou markest8104 me, and thou wilt not acquit5352 me from mine iniquity5771.
15If I be wicked7561, woe480 unto me; and if I be righteous6663, yet will I not lift up5375 my head7218. I am full7649 of confusion7036; therefore see7202 7200 thou mine affliction6040;
16For it increaseth1342. Thou huntest6679 me as a fierce lion7826: and again7725 thou shewest thyself marvellous6381 upon me.
17Thou renewest2318 thy witnesses5707 against me, and increasest7235 thine indignation3708 upon me5978; changes2487 and war6635 are against me.
18Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth3318 out of the womb7358? Oh that I had given up the ghost1478, and no eye5869 had seen7200 me!
19I should have been as though I had not been; I should have been carried2986 from the womb990 to the grave6913.
20Are not my days3117 few4592? cease2308 2308 then, and let me alone7896 7896, that I may take comfort1082 a little4592,
21Before I go3212 whence I shall not return7725, even to the land776 of darkness2822 and the shadow of death6757;
22A land776 of darkness5890, as darkness652 itself; and of the shadow of death6757, without any order5468, and where the light3313 is as darkness652.
