12. Why did the knees receive me? Or why the breast, that I should suck?
13. For now should I have lain down and been quiet; I should have slept; then had I been at rest,
14. With kings and counsellors of the earth, Who built up waste places for themselves;
15. Or with princes that had gold, Who filled their houses with silver:
16. Or as a hidden untimely birth I had not been, As infants that never saw light.
17. There the wicked cease from troubling; And there the weary are at rest.
