- I said, "I will not again see the LORD, the LORD, in the land of the living; no longer will I look on mankind, or be with those who now dwell in this world.
- Like a shepherd's tent my house has been pulled down and taken from me. Like a weaver I have rolled up my life, and he has cut me off from the loom; day and night you made an end of me.
- I waited patiently till dawn, but like a lion he broke all my bones; day and night you made an end of me.
- I cried like a swift or thrush, I moaned like a mourning dove. My eyes grew weak as I looked to the heavens. I am troubled; O Lord, come to my aid!"
- But what can I say? He has spoken to me, and he himself has done this. I will walk humbly all my years because of this anguish of my soul.
