- 1. My soule is weary of my life, I will leaue my complaint vpon my selfe; I will speake in the bitternesse of my soule.
- 2. I will say vnto God, Doe not condemne mee; shewe me wherefore thou contendest with me.
- 3. Is it good vnto thee, that thou shouldest oppresse? that thou shouldest despise the worke of thine hands? and shine vpon the counsell of the wicked?
- 4. Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth?
- 5. Are thy dayes as the dayes of man? are thy yeeres as mans dayes,
- 6. That thou enquirest after mine iniquitie, and searchest after my sinne?
- 7. Thou knowest that I am not wicked, and there is none that can deliuer out of thine hand.
- 8. Thine hands haue made me and fashioned me together round about yet thou doest destroy me.
- 9. Remember, I beseech thee, that thou hast made me as the clay, and wilt thou bring me into dust againe?
- 10. Hast thou not powred me out as milke, and cruddled me like cheese?
- 11. Thou hast cloathed me with skin and flesh, and hast fenced me with bones and sinewes.
- 12. Thou hast granted me life and fauour, and thy visitation hath preserued my spirit.
- 13. And these things hast thou hid in thine heart; I know that this is with thee.
- 14. If I sinne, then thou markest me, and thou wilt not acquite me from mine iniquitie.
- 15. If I be wicked, woe vnto me; and if I be righteous, yet will I not lift vp my head: I am full of confusion, therefore see thou mine affliction:
- 16. For it increaseth: thou huntest me as a fierce Lion: and againe thou shewest thy selfe marueilous vpon me.
- 17. Thou renuest thy witnesses against me, and increasest thine indignation vpon me; Changes and warre are against me.
- 18. Wherfore then hast thou brought me forth out of the wombe? Oh that I had giuen vp the ghost, and no eye had seene me!
- 19. I should haue bene as though I had not bene, I should haue bene caried from the wombe to the graue.
- 20. Are not my dayes few? cease then, and let me alone that I may take comfort a litle,
- 21. Before I goe whence I shall not returne, euen to the land of darknes and the shadow of death,
- 22. A land of darknes, as darknes it selfe, and of the shadow of death, without any order, and where the light is as darkenes.
