4. He has worn out my flesh and skin, he has broken my bones.
5. He has besieged and engulfed me with bitterness and hardship.
6. In darkness he has let me dwell like the dead of long ago.
7. He has built a wall around me, I cannot go out; he has made my bronze fetters heavy.
8. Though I cry out for help, he shuts out my prayers.
9. He has blocked my ways with dressed stones; he has made my paths crooked.
10. To me he is like a bear lying in wait, a lion in hiding.
11. He has forsaken my way and torn me to pieces; he has caused me desolation.
12. He has bent his bow and set me as the target for the arrow.
13. He shot the arrows of his quiver into my kidneys.
14. I have become a laughingstock for all the people, their mocking song all day long.
