Cities » Afforded refuge in times of danger
Wherefore are we sitting still? Be gathered, and we go in to the fenced cities, And we are silent there, For Jehovah our God hath made us silent, Yea, He causeth us to drink water of gall, For we have sinned against Jehovah. Looking for peace -- and there is no good, For a time of healing, and lo, terror. From Dan hath been heard the snorting of his horses, From the voice of the neighings of his mighty ones, Trembled hath all the land, And they come in and consume the land and its fulness, The city and the inhabitants in it.
Distress » Sorrow » Common to all men
Because Thou hast showed me many and sad distresses, Thou turnest back -- Thou revivest me, And from the depths of the earth, Thou turnest back -- Thou bringest me up.
Man, born of woman! Of few days, and full of trouble!
For all his days are sorrows, and his travail sadness; even at night his heart hath not lain down; this also is vanity.
For man to misery is born, And the sparks go high to fly.
Compassed me have cords of death, And straits of Sheol have found me, Distress and sorrow I find.
Looking for peace -- and there is no good, For a time of healing, and lo, terror.
