5. He has besieged meAnd surrounded me with bitterness and woe.
6. He has set me in dark placesLike the dead of long ago.
7. He has hedged me in so that I cannot get out;He has made my chain heavy.
8. Even when I cry and shout,He shuts out my prayer.
9. He has blocked my ways with hewn stone;He has made my paths crooked.
10. He has been to me a bear lying in wait,Like a lion in ambush.
