fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData My soul is weary of my life; I will give free course to my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul. |
| 2 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData I will say unto God, Do not condemn me; Show me wherefore thou contendest with me. |
| 3 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Is it good unto thee that thou shouldest oppress, That thou shouldest despise the work of thy hands, And shine upon the counsel of the wicked? |
| 4 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Hast thou eyes of flesh? Or seest thou as man seeth? |
| 5 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Are thy days as the days of man, Or thy years as man's days, |
| 6 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData That thou inquirest after mine iniquity, And searchest after my sin, |
| 7 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Although thou knowest that I am not wicked, And there is none that can deliver out of thy hand? |
| 8 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Thy hands have framed me and fashioned me Together round about; yet thou dost destroy me. |
| 9 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast fashioned me as clay; And wilt thou bring me into dust again? |

fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Hast thou not poured me out as milk, And curdled me like cheese? |
| 11 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh, And knit me together with bones and sinews. |
| 12 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Thou hast granted me life and lovingkindness; And thy visitation hath preserved my spirit. |
| 13 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Yet these things thou didst hide in thy heart; I know that this is with thee: |
| 14 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData If I sin, then thou markest me, And thou wilt not acquit me from mine iniquity. |
| 15 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData If I be wicked, woe unto me; And if I be righteous, yet shall I not lift up my head; Being filled with ignominy, And looking upon mine affliction. |
| 16 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData And if `my head' exalt itself, thou huntest me as a lion; And again thou showest thyself marvellous upon me. |
| 17 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Thou renewest thy witnesses against me, And increasest thine indignation upon me: Changes and warfare are with me. |
| 18 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me. |
| 19 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData I should have been as though I had not been; I should have been carried from the womb to the grave. |
| 20 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Are not my days few? cease then, And let me alone, that I may take comfort a little, |
| 21 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData Before I go whence I shall not return, `Even' to the land of darkness and of the shadow of death; |
| 22 |
fjrigjwwe9r2AmerStd_Bible_EN:TextData The land dark as midnight, `The land' of the shadow of death, without any order, And where the light is as midnight. |
