Thou renewest thy witnesses against me, and increasest thine indignation upon me; changes and war {are} against me. {witnesses: that is, plagues}

Wherefore then hast thou brought me forth out of the womb? Oh that I had given up the ghost, and no eye had seen me!

{Are} not my days few? cease {then, and} let me alone, that I may take comfort a little,

Before I go {whence} I shall not return, {even} to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;
