1My breath is corrupt, my days are extinct, the graves are ready for me.studyinterlinear
2Are there not mockers with me? and doth not mine eye continue in their provocation?studyinterlinear
3Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who is he that will strike hands with me?studyinterlinear
4For thou hast hid their heart from understanding: therefore shalt thou not exalt them.studyinterlinear
5He that speaketh flattery to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail.studyinterlinear
6He hath made me also a byword of the people; and aforetime I was as a tabret.studyinterlinear
7Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow.studyinterlinear
8Upright men shall be astonied at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite.studyinterlinear
9The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger.studyinterlinear
10But as for you all, do ye return, and come now: for I cannot find one wise man among you.studyinterlinear
11My days are past, my purposes are broken off, even the thoughts of my heart.studyinterlinear
12They change the night into day: the light is short because of darkness.studyinterlinear
13If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness.studyinterlinear
14I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister.studyinterlinear
15And where is now my hope? as for my hope, who shall see it?studyinterlinear
16They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when our rest together is in the dust.studyinterlinear
