4. Hast thou eyes of flesh? Dost thou see as man sees?
5. Are thy days as the days of man? Are thy years as man’s days,
6. that thou dost enquire after my iniquity and search after my sin?
7. Thou knowest that I am not wicked; and there is no one that can deliver out of thy hand.
8. Thine hands have formed me and fashioned me together round about; yet thou dost destroy me.
9. Remember now that thou hast formed me as the clay; and wilt thou bring me into dust again?
10. Hast thou not poured me out as milk and curdled me like cheese?
11. Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh and hast hedged me with bones and sinews.
12. Thou hast granted me life and mercy, and thy visitation has kept my spirit.
13. And these things thou hast hid in thine heart; I know that this is with thee.
14. If I sinned, wilt thou mark me and not cleanse me from my iniquity?
15. If I am wicked, woe unto me; and if I am righteous, I will not lift up my head, being full of dishonour and of seeing my affliction.
16. And thou dost increase. Thou dost hunt me as a fierce lion; turning and doing marvels in me.
