My breathH7307 is corruptH2254, my daysH3117 are extinctH2193, the gravesH6913 are ready for me. {breath…: or, spirit is spent}

He hath madeH3322 me also a bywordH4914 of the peopleH5971; and aforetimeH6440 I was as a tabretH8611. {aforetime: or, before them}

ButH199 as for you all, do ye returnH7725, and come nowH935: for I cannot findH4672 one wiseH2450 man among you.
My daysH3117 are pastH5674, my purposesH2154 are broken offH5423, even the thoughtsH4180 of my heartH3824. {the thoughts: Heb. the possessions}
They changeH7760 the nightH3915 into dayH3117: the lightH216 is shortH7138 becauseH6440 of darknessH2822. {short: Heb. near}
If I waitH6960, the graveH7585 is mine houseH1004: I have madeH7502 my bedH3326 in the darknessH2822.
I have saidH7121 to corruptionH7845, Thou art my fatherH1: to the wormH7415, Thou art my motherH517, and my sisterH269. {said: Heb. cried, or, called}
And where is nowH645 my hopeH8615? as for my hopeH8615, who shall seeH7789 it?
They shall go downH3381 to the barsH905 of the pitH7585, when our restH5183 togetherH3162 is in the dustH6083.
