Behold, I cry out6817 of wrong2555, but I am not heard6030: I cry aloud7768, but there is no judgment4941. wrong: or, violence He hath fenced up1443 my way734 that I cannot pass5674, and he hath set7760 darkness2822 in my paths5410. He hath stripped6584 me of my 3519, and taken5493 the crown5850 from my head7218. He hath destroyed5422 me every side5439, and I am gone3212: and mine hope8615 hath he removed5265 like a tree6086. He hath also kindled2734 his wrath639 against me, and he counteth2803 me unto him as one of his enemies6862. His troops1416 come935 together3162, and raise up5549 their way1870 against me, and encamp2583 round about5439 my 168. He hath 7368 my brethren251 far7368 from me, and mine acquaintance3045 are verily estranged2114 from me. My kinsfolk7138 have failed2308, and my familiar friends3045 have forgotten7911 me.

Why do ye persecute7291 me as God410, and are not satisfied7646 with my flesh1320? Oh that5414 my words4405 were now645 written3789! oh that5414 they were printed2710 in a book5612! Oh: Heb.
