Because it hath not shut the doors Of the womb that was mine! And hide misery from mine eyes.
Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter in soul;
As I have seen -- ploughers of iniquity, And sowers of misery, reap it!
For sorrow cometh not forth from the dust, Nor from the ground springeth up misery.
So I have been caused to inherit months of vanity, And nights of misery they numbered to me.
‘If I am wicked, woe to me!And if I am righteous, I dare not lift up my head.I am sated with disgrace and conscious of my misery.
Because thou shalt forget thy misery, and remember it as waters that pass away:
To conceive misery, and to bear iniquity, Even their heart doth prepare deceit.
At the height of his success distress will come to him;the full weight of misery will crush him.
"And now my life is poured out onto me; days of misery have taken hold of me.
My bowels are in turmoil, and they are not still; days of misery come to confront me.
"And if [they] are tied up with fetters, [if] they are caught in [the] cords of misery,
He delivers [the] afflicted by his misery, and he opens their ears by the adversity.
