Thou have called, as in the day of a solemn assembly, my terrors on every side. And there was none who escaped or remained in the day of LORD's anger. My enemy has consumed those whom I have dandled and brought up.

He has made me to dwell in dark places, as those who have long been dead.

LORD is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.

They have chased me grievously like a bird, those who are my enemies without cause.

the lips of those who rose up against me, and their device against me all the day.

Those who fed luxuriously are desolate in the streets. Those who were brought up in scarlet embrace dunghills.

Those who are slain with the sword are better than those who are slain with hunger, for these pine away, stricken through, for want of the fruits of the field.
