6. My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle;they come to an end without hope.
7. Remember that my life is like the wind;my eye will not see happiness again.
8. The eye that now sees me shall no more behold me;when your eye is on me, I shall be gone.
9. As a cloud dissolves and vanishes,so whoever goes down to Sheol shall not come up.
10. They shall not return home again;their place shall know them no more.
11. My own utterance I will not restrain;I will speak in the anguish of my spirit;I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
12. Am I the Sea, or the dragon,that you place a watch over me?
13. When I say, “My bed shall comfort me,my couch shall ease my complaint,”
14. Then you frighten me with dreamsand terrify me with visions,
15. So that I should prefer strangulationand death rather than my existence.
16. I waste away: I will not live forever;let me alone, for my days are but a breath.
17. What are human beings, that you make much of them,or pay them any heed?
