14He breakethH6555 me with breachH6556 uponH6440 breachH6556, he runnethH7323 upon me like a giantH1368. 15I have sewedH8609 sackclothH8242 upon my skinH1539, and defiledH5953 my strengthH7161 in the dustH6083. 16My faceH6440 is foulH2560 with weepingH1065, and on my eyelidsH6079 are the shadow of deathH6757;

17Not for anyinjusticeH2555 in my handsH3709: also my prayerH8605 is pureH2134. 18O earthH776, coverH3680 not thou my bloodH1818, and let my cryH2201 have no placeH4725. 19Also now, behold, my witnessH5707 is in heavenH8064, and my recordH7717 is on highH4791.1 20My friendsH7453 scornH3887 me: but my eyeH5869 poureth outH1811 tears to GodH433.2 21O that one might pleadH3198 for a manH1397 with GodH433, as a manH120 pleadeth for his neighbourH1121H7453!3 22When a fewH4557 yearsH8141 are comeH857, then I shall goH1980 the wayH734 from which I shall not returnH7725.4
