1. “People have a hard task on earth,and their days are like those of a laborer.
2. They are like a slave wishing for the evening shadows,like a laborer waiting to be paid.
3. But I am given months that are empty,and nights of misery have been given to me.
4. When I lie down, I think, ‘How long until I get up?’The night is long, and I toss until dawn.
5. My body is covered with worms and scabs,and my skin is broken and full of sores.
6. “My days go by faster than a weaver’s tool,and they come to an end without hope.
