6. He has made me dwell in dark places,as those who have been long dead.
7. He has walled me about, so that I can’t go out.He has made my chain heavy.
8. Yes, when I cry, and call for help,he shuts out my prayer.
9. He has walled up my ways with cut stone.He has made my paths crooked.
10. He is to me as a bear lying in wait,as a lion in secret places.
11. He has turned away my ways,and pulled me in pieces.He has made me desolate.
12. He has bent his bow,and set me as a mark for the arrow.
13. He has caused the shafts of his quiver to enter into my kidneys.
14. I have become a derision to all my people,and their song all day long.
15. He has filled me with bitterness.He has stuffed me with wormwood.
16. He has also broken my teeth with gravel.He has covered me with ashes.
17. You have removed my soul far away from peace.I forgot prosperity.
