6. “My days go by faster than a weaver moves his tool.And they come to an end without hope.
7. Remember, God, that my life is only as long as a breath.My eyes will never see happy times again.
8. Those who see me now will see me no more.You will look for me, but I will be gone.
9. A cloud disappears and is gone.In the same way, a person who goes where the dead are does not return.
10. He will never come back to his house again.His place will not know him anymore.
11. “So I will not stay quiet.I will speak out in the suffering of my spirit.I will complain because I am so unhappy.
12. I am not the sea or the sea monster.So why have you set a guard over me?
13. Sometimes I think my bed will comfort me.Or I think my couch will stop my complaint.
14. Then you frighten me with dreams.You terrify me with visions.
15. My throat prefers to be choked.My bones welcome death.
16. I hate my life. I don’t want to live forever.Let me alone. My days have no meaning.
17. “Why do you make man so important?Why do you give him so much attention?
18. Will you examine him every morning?Why do you test him every moment?
