1My breath7307 is corrupt2254, my days3117 are extinct2193, the graves6913 are ready for me.
2Are there not mockers2049 with me? and doth not mine eye5869 continue3885 in their provocation4784?
3Lay down7760 now, put me in a surety6148 with thee; who is he that will strike8628 hands3027 with me?
4For thou hast hid6845 their heart3820 from understanding7922: therefore shalt thou not exalt7311 them.
5He that speaketh5046 flattery2506 to his friends7453, even the eyes5869 of his children1121 shall fail3615.
6He hath made3322 me also a byword4914 of the people5971; and aforetime6440 I was as a tabret8611.
7Mine eye5869 also is dim3543 by reason of sorrow3708, and all my members3338 are as a shadow6738.
8Upright3477 men shall be astonied8074 at this, and the innocent5355 shall stir up5782 himself against the hypocrite2611.
9The righteous6662 also shall hold270 on his way1870, and he that hath clean2890 hands3027 shall be3254 stronger and stronger555.
10But199 as for you all, do ye return7725, and come now935: for I cannot find4672 one wise2450 man among you.
11My days3117 are past5674, my purposes2154 are broken off5423, even the thoughts4180 of my heart3824.
12They change7760 the night3915 into day3117: the light216 is short7138 because6440 of darkness2822.
13If I wait6960, the grave7585 is mine house1004: I have made7502 my bed3326 in the darkness2822.
14I have said7121 to corruption7845, Thou art my father1: to the worm7415, Thou art my mother517, and my sister269.
15And where is now645 my hope8615? as for my hope8615, who shall see7789 it?
16They shall go down3381 to the bars905 of the pit7585, when our rest5183 together3162 is in the dust6083.
