7“Behold, I cry, ‘Violence!’ but I get no answer; I shout for help, but there is no justice. 8He has blocked my way so that I cannot pass, And He has put darkness on my paths. He has stripped my honor from me And removed the crown from my head. 10He breaks me down on every side, and I am gone; And He has uprooted my hope like a tree. 11He has also kindled His anger against me And considered me as His enemy.
