10. Please stop wounding me!You have almost beaten me to death!
11. You severely discipline people for their sins;like a moth you slowly devour their strength.Surely all people are a mere vapor. (Selah)
12. Hear my prayer, O Lord!Listen to my cry for help!Do not ignore my sobbing!For I am dependent on you, like one residing outside his native land;I am at your mercy, just as all my ancestors were.
13. Turn your angry gaze away from me, so I can be happybefore I pass away.
