4. The fearsome arrowsof God All-Powerfulhave filled my soulwith their poison.
5. Do oxen and wild donkeyscry out in distressunless they are hungry?
6. What is food without salt?What is more tastelessthan the white of an egg?
7. That's how my food tastes,and my appetite is gone.
8-9. How I wish that Godwould answer my prayerand do away with me.
10. Then I would be comforted,knowing that in all my painI have never disobeyed God.
