7:20 If 1 I have sinned – what have I done to you, 2
O watcher of men? 3
Why have you set me as your target? 4
Have I become a burden to you? 5
16:11 God abandons me to evil 6 men, 7
and throws 8 me into the hands of wicked men.
16:12 I was in peace, and he has shattered me. 9
He has seized me by the neck and crushed me. 10
He has made me his target;
16:13 his archers 11 surround me.
Without pity 12 he pierces 13 my kidneys
and pours out my gall 14 on the ground.
16:14 He breaks through against me, time and time again; 15
he rushes 16 against me like a warrior.
44:9 But 17 you rejected and embarrassed us!
You did not go into battle with our armies. 18
44:10 You made us retreat 19 from the enemy.
Those who hate us take whatever they want from us. 20
44:11 You handed us 21 over like sheep to be eaten;
you scattered us among the nations.
44:12 You sold 22 your people for a pittance; 23
you did not ask a high price for them. 24
44:13 You made us 25 an object of disdain to our neighbors;
those who live on our borders taunt and insult us. 26
44:14 You made us 27 an object of ridicule 28 among the nations;
foreigners treat us with contempt. 29
66:10 For 30 you, O God, tested us;
you purified us like refined silver.
66:11 You led us into a trap; 31
you caused us to suffer. 32
66:12 You allowed men to ride over our heads;
we passed through fire and water,
but you brought us out into a wide open place. 33
