21. You have become cruel toward me.You use your power to persecute me.
22. You throw me into the whirlwindand destroy me in the storm.
23. And I know you are sending me to my death—the destination of all who live.
24. “Surely no one would turn against the needywhen they cry for help in their trouble.
25. Did I not weep for those in trouble?Was I not deeply grieved for the needy?
26. So I looked for good, but evil came instead.I waited for the light, but darkness fell.
27. My heart is troubled and restless.Days of suffering torment me.
