Sheep and oxen, all of them, And also beasts of the field,

Among all mine adversaries I have been a reproach, And to my neighbours exceedingly, And a fear to mine acquaintances, Those seeing me without -- fled from me.

I have known every fowl of the mountains, And the wild beast of the field is with Me.

I have sunk in deep mire, And there is no standing, I have come into the depths of the waters, And a flood hath overflown me.

Let not a flood of waters overflow me, Nor let the deep swallow me up, Nor let the pit shut her mouth upon me.

Before their fathers He hath done wonders, In the land of Egypt -- the field of Zoan.

When He set His signs in Egypt, And His wonders in the field of Zoan,

The field exulteth, and all that is in it, Then sing do all trees of the forest,

Mortal man! as grass are his days, As a flower of the field so he flourisheth;

They water every beast of the field, Wild asses break their thirst.
