10. They have gaped upon me with their mouth; They have smitten me upon the cheek reproachfully: They gather themselves together against me.
11. God delivereth me to the ungodly, And casteth me into the hands of the wicked.
12. I was at ease, and he brake me asunder; Yea, he hath taken me by the neck, and dashed me to pieces: He hath also set me up for his mark.
13. His archers compass me round about; He cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; He poureth out my gall upon the ground.
14. He breaketh me with breach upon breach; He runneth upon me like a giant.
15. I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, And have laid my horn in the dust.
16. My face is red with weeping, And on my eyelids is the shadow of death;
17. Although there is no violence in my hands, And my prayer is pure.
18. O earth, cover not thou my blood, And let my cry have no resting -place.
