"Although I cried out "Violence!' I received no answer; I cried for help, but there was no justice. He blocked my path, so I cannot pass; and he turned out the lights on my pathways. "He has stripped me of my honor; he has stolen the crown off my head! He is breaking me down on every side, and now it's too late for me; he has uprooted my hopes like a tree. His anger burns against me; he regards me as his adversary. His troops march in a column against me, erecting their siege ramps against me; they surround my tent."

I'm a pile of skin and bones; I have barely escaped by the skin of my teeth." "Be gracious to me, be gracious to me, my friends, because God's hand has struck me. Why are you chasing me, as God has been doing? Aren't you satisfied that I'm sick? If only my words were written down; if only they were inscribed in a book using an iron stylus with lead for ink! Then they'd be engraved in rock forever. "As for me, I know that my Vindicator is alive; And he, the Last One, will take his stand on the soil. Even after my skin has been destroyed, clothed in my flesh I will see God, whom I will see for myself. My own eyes will look at him there won't be anyone else for me! He is the culmination of my innermost desire."
