2. How long will you torment meand crush me with words?
3. You have humiliated me ten times now,and you mistreat me without shame.
4. Even if it is true that I have sinned,my mistake concerns only me.
5. If you really want to appear superior to meand would use my disgrace as evidence against me,
6. then understand that it is God who has wronged meand caught me in His net.
7. I cry out: “Violence!” but get no response; I call for help, but there is no justice.
8. He has blocked my way so that I cannot pass through;He has veiled my paths with darkness.
9. He has stripped me of my honorand removed the crown from my head.
10. He tears me down on every side so that I am ruined. He uproots my hope like a tree.
11. His anger burns against me,and He regards me as one of His enemies.
12. His troops advance together;they construct a ramp against meand camp around my tent.
13. He has removed my brothers from me;my acquaintances have abandoned me.
14. My relatives stop coming by,and my close friends have forgotten me.
15. My house guests and female servants regard me as a stranger;I am a foreigner in their sight.
