[2]How long will ye vexH3013[H8686] my soulH5315, and breakH1792[H8762] me in pieces with wordsH4405? |
| [3]These ten times have ye reproached me; ye are not ashamed that ye deal harshly with me. |
[3]These tenH6235 timesH6471 have ye reproachedH3637[H8686] me: ye are not ashamedH954[H8799] that ye make yourselves strangeH1970 to meH8686. |
| [4]And be it indeed that I have erred, mine error remaineth with myself. |
[4]And be it indeedH551 that I have erredH7686[H8804], mine errorH4879 remainethH3885 with myselfH8799. |
| [5]If indeed ye will magnify yourselves against me, and plead against me my reproach; |
[5]If indeedH551 ye will magnifyH1431[H8686] yourselves against me, and pleadH3198[H8686] against me my reproachH2781: |
| [6]Know now that God hath subverted my cause, and hath compassed me with His net. |
[6]KnowH3045[H8798] nowH645 that GodH433 hath overthrownH5791[H8765] me, and hath compassedH5362[H8689] me with his netH4686. |
| [7]Behold, I cry out: 'Violence!' but I am not heard; I cry aloud, but there is no justice. |
[7]Behold, I cry outH6817[H8799] of wrongH2555, but I am not heardH6030[H8735]: I cry aloudH7768[H8762], but there is no judgmentH4941. |
| [8]He hath fenced up my way that I cannot pass, and hath set darkness in my paths. |
[8]He hath fenced upH1443[H8804] my wayH734 that I cannot passH5674[H8799], and he hath setH7760[H8799] darknessH2822 in my pathsH5410. |
| [9]He hath stripped me of my glory, and taken the crown from my head. |
[9]He hath strippedH6584[H8689] me of my gloryH3519, and takenH5493[H8686] the crownH5850 from my headH7218. |
| [10]He hath broken me down on every side, and I am gone; and my hope hath He plucked up like a tree. |
[10]He hath destroyedH5422[H8799] me on every sideH5439, and I am goneH3212[H8799]: and mine hopeH8615 hath he removedH5265[H8686] like a treeH6086. |
| [11]He hath also kindled His wrath against me, and He counteth me unto Him as one of His adversaries. |
[11]He hath also kindledH2734[H8686] his wrathH639 against me, and he countethH2803[H8799] me unto him as one of his enemiesH6862. |

[14]My kinsfolkH7138 have failedH2308[H8804], and my familiar friendsH3045[H8794] have forgottenH7911 meH8804. |

| [16]I call unto my servant, and he giveth me no answer, though I entreat him with my mouth. |
[16]I calledH7121[H8804] my servantH5650, and he gave me no answerH6030[H8799]; I intreatedH2603[H8691] him withH1119 my mouthH6310. |
| [17]My breath is abhorred of my wife, and I loathsome to the children of my tribe. |
[17]My breathH7307 is strangeH2114[H8804] to my wifeH802, though I intreatedH2589[H8800] for the children'sH1121 sake of mine own bodyH990. |
| [18]Even urchins despised me; if I arise, they speak against me. |
[18]Yea, young childrenH5759 despisedH3988[H8804] me; I aroseH6965[H8799], and they spakeH1696 against meH8762. |
| [19]All my intimate friends abhor me; and they whom I loved are turned against me. |
[19]All my inwardH5475 friendsH4962 abhorredH8581[H8765] me: and they whom I lovedH157[H8804] are turnedH2015 against meH8738. |

[20]My boneH6106 cleavethH1692[H8804] to my skinH5785 and to my fleshH1320, and I am escapedH4422[H8691] with the skinH5785 of my teethH8127. |

[21]Have pityH2603[H8798] upon me, have pityH2603[H8798] upon me, O ye my friendsH7453; for the handH3027 of GodH433 hath touchedH5060 meH8804. |
| [22]Why do ye persecute me as God, and are not satisfied with my flesh? |
[22]Why do ye persecuteH7291[H8799] me as GodH410, and are not satisfiedH7646[H8799] with my fleshH1320? |
| [23]Oh that my words were now written! Oh that they were inscribed in a book! |
[23]Oh thatH5414[H8799] my wordsH4405 were nowH645 writtenH3789[H8735]! oh thatH5414[H8799] they were printedH2710[H8714] in a bookH5612! |
| [24]That with an iron pen and lead they were graven in the rock for ever! |
[24]That they were gravenH2672[H8735] with an ironH1270 penH5842 and leadH5777 in the rockH6697 for everH5703! |
| [25]But as for me, I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that He will witness at the last upon the dust; |
[25]For I knowH3045[H8804] that my redeemerH1350[H8802] livethH2416, and that he shall standH6965[H8799] at the latterH314 day upon the earthH6083: |
| [26]And when after my skin this is destroyed, then without my flesh shall I see God; |
[26]And though afterH310 my skinH5785 worms destroyH5362[H8765] this body, yet in my fleshH1320 shall I seeH2372[H8799] GodH433: |
| [27]Whom I, even I, shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another's. My reins consumed within me. |
[27]Whom I shall seeH2372[H8799] for myself, and mine eyesH5869 shall beholdH7200[H8804], and not anotherH2114[H8801]; though my reinsH3629 be consumedH3615[H8804] within meH2436. |
| [28]If ye say: 'How we will persecute him!' seeing that the root of the matter is found in me; |
[28]But ye should sayH559[H8799], Why persecuteH7291[H8799] we him, seeing the rootH8328 of the matterH1697 is foundH4672 in meH8738? |
| [29]Be ye afraid of the sword; for wrath bringeth the punishments of the sword, that ye may know there is a judgment. |
[29]Be ye afraidH1481[H8798] of the swordH2719: for wrathH2534 bringeth the punishmentsH5771 ofH6440 the swordH2719, that ye may knowH3045[H8799] there is a judgmentH1779[H8675].[H1779] |
