have frequently come to my ears: you are comforters who only give trouble. <\/br><strong>3<\/strong> May words which are like the wind be stopped? or what is troubling you to make answer to them? <\/br><strong>4<\/strong> It would not be hard for me to say such things if your souls were in my soul&#8217;s place; joining words together against you, and shaking my head at you: <\/br><strong>5<\/strong> I might give you strength with my mouth, and not keep back the comfort of my lips. <\/br><strong>6<\/strong> If I say what is in my mind, my pain becomes no less: and if I keep quiet, how much of it goes from me? <\/br><strong>7<\/strong> But now he has overcome me with weariness and fear, and I am in the grip of all my trouble. <\/br><strong>8<\/strong> It has come up as a witness against me, and the wasting of my flesh makes answer to my face. <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> I am broken by his wrath, and his hate has gone after me; he has made his teeth sharp against me: my haters are looking on me with cruel eyes; <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> Their mouths are open wide against me; the blows of his bitter words are falling on my face; all of them come together in a mass against me. <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> God gives me over to the power of sinners, sending me violently into the hands of evil-doers. <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> I was in comfort, but I have been broken up by his hands; he has taken me by the neck, shaking me to bits; he has put me up as a mark for his arrows. <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> His bowmen come round about me; their arrows go through my body without mercy; my life is drained out on the earth. <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> I am broken with wound after wound; he comes rushing on me like a man of war. <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> I have made haircloth the clothing of my skin, and my horn is rolled in the dust. <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> My face is red with weeping, and my eyes are becoming dark; <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> Though my hands have done no violent acts, and my prayer is clean. <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> O earth, let not my blood be covered, and let my cry have no resting-place! <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> Even now my witness is in heaven, and the supporter of my cause is on high. <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> My friends make sport of me; to God my eyes are weeping, <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> So that he may give decision for a man in his cause with God, and between a son of man and his neighbour. <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> For in a short time I will take the journey from which I will not come back.
