1. Aleph I am a man that sees affliction in the rod of his wrath.
2. Aleph He has led me and brought me into darkness, but not into light.
3. Aleph Surely he is turned against me; he turns his hand against me all the day.
4. Beth My flesh and my skin he has made old; he has broken my bones.
5. Beth He has built against me and compassed me with gall and travail.
6. Beth He has set me in dark places as those that are dead for ever.
