20 Wherewith is light given to him that is in misery, And life unto the bitter in soul--

21 Who long for death, but it cometh not; And dig for it more than for hid treasures;

22 Who rejoice unto exultation, And are glad, when they can find the grave?--

23 To a man whose way is hid, And whom God hath hedged in?

24 For my sighing cometh instead of my food, And my roarings are poured out like water.

25 For the thing which I did fear is come upon me, And that which I was afraid of hath overtaken me.

26 I was not at ease, neither was I quiet, Neither had I rest; but trouble came.
