9. As the cloud is consumed and vanishes away, so he that goes down to Sheol, who shall not come up again;
10. he shall return no more to his house; neither shall his place know him any more.
11. Therefore, I will not refrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul.
12. Am I a sea, or a dragon, that thou settest a watch over me?
13. When I say, My bed shall comfort me, my couch shall ease my complaint;
14. then thou dost scare me with dreams and terrify me with visions.
15. And my soul thought it better to be strangled and desired death more than my bones.
16. I loathed life; I do not desire to live for ever; let me alone; for my days are vanity.
17. What is man that thou should magnify him and that thou should set thine heart upon him
18. and that thou should visit him every morning and try him every moment?
19. For how long wilt thou not depart from me, nor let me alone until I swallow down my spittle?
