13
Yet these things Thou didst hide in Thy heart; I know that this is with Thee;
14
If I sin, then Thou markest me, and Thou wilt not acquit me from mine iniquity.
15
If I be wicked, woe unto me; and if I be righteous, yet shall I not lift up my head--being filled with ignominy and looking upon mine affliction.
16
And if it exalt itself, Thou huntest me as a lion; and again Thou showest Thyself marvellous upon me.
17
Thou renewest Thy witnesses against me, and increasest Thine indignation upon me; host succeeding host against me.
18
Wherefore then hast Thou brought me forth out of the womb? Would that I had perished, and no eye had seen me!
19
I should have been as though I had not been; I should have been carried from the womb to the grave.
20
Are not my days few? Cease then, and let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,
21
Before I go whence I shall not return, even to the land of darkness and of the shadow of death;
22
A land of thick darkness, as darkness itself; a land of the shadow of death, without any order, and where the light is as darkness.
