“So now, deal with me as you please;command my life breath to be taken from me,that I may depart from the face of the earth and become dust.It is better for me to die than to live,because I have listened to undeserved reproaches,and great is the grief within me.“Lord, command that I be released from such anguish;let me go to my everlasting abode;Do not turn your face away from me, Lord.For it is better for me to diethan to endure so much misery in life,and to listen to such reproaches!”
