6 “If I speak, amy pain is not lessened,
And if I cease, what will go forth from me?
7 But now He has aexhausted me;
You have made bdesolate all my company.
8 You have shriveled me up,
aIt has become a witness;
And my bleanness rises up against me,
It answers to my face.
9 His anger has atorn me and hunted me down;
He has bgnashed at me with His teeth;
My cadversary sharpens his eyes to look at me.
10 They have aopened their mouth wide at me;
They have bstruck me on the cheek in reproach;
They have cmassed themselves against me.
11 God hands me over to ruffians
And tosses me into the hands of the wicked.
12 I was at ease, but aHe shattered me,
And He has grasped me by the neck and shaken me to pieces;
He has also set me up as His btarget.
13 His aarrows surround me.
Without mercy He splits my kidneys open;
He pours out bmy gall on the ground.
14 He abreaks through me with breach after breach;
He bruns at me like a warrior.
15 I have sewed asackcloth over my skin
And bthrust my horn in the dust.
16 My face is flushed from aweeping,
bAnd the shadow of death is on my eyelids,
