26. They glide past like boats made of papyrus plants.My days are like eagles that swoop down on animals they attack.
27. I might say, ‘I will forget my complaint.I will change the look on my face, and smile.’
28. But I will still dread all my suffering.I know you will hold me guilty.
29. I have already been found guilty.So why should I struggle for no reason?
30. I might wash myself with soap.And I might even wash my hands with strong soap.
31. But you would push me into a dirty pit.And even my clothes would hate me.
32. “God is not a man like me. So I cannot answer him.We cannot meet each other in court.
33. I wish there was someone to make peace between us.I wish someone could decide our case.
34. I wish someone could remove God’s punishment from me.Then his terror would not frighten me anymore.
35. Then I could speak up without being afraid of God.But I am not able to do that.
