12. Why did the knees receive me? or why the breasts, 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, which built up waste places for themselves;
15. Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver:
16. Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants which never saw light.
17. There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary be at rest.
