19. The small and great are there; and the servant is free from his master.
20. Why is light given to him that is in misery, and life to the bitter in soul;
21. Who long for death, but it cometh not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures;
22. Who rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they can find the grave?
23. Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in?
24. For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters.
25. For the thing which I greatly feared hath come upon me, and that which I dreaded hath come to me.
26. I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet; yet trouble came.
