4. He has worn away my flesh and my skin,he has broken my bones;
5. He has besieged me all aroundwith poverty and hardship;
6. He has left me to dwell in dark placeslike those long dead.
7. He has hemmed me in with no escape,weighed me down with chains;
8. Even when I cry for help,he stops my prayer;
9. He has hemmed in my ways with fitted stones,and made my paths crooked.
10. He has been a bear lying in wait for me,a lion in hiding!
11. He turned me aside and tore me apart,leaving me ravaged.
12. He bent his bow, and set me upas a target for his arrow.
13. He pierced my kidneyswith shafts from his quiver.
14. I have become a laughingstock to all my people,their taunt all day long;
15. He has sated me with bitterness,filled me with wormwood.
