20 Why is light given to him who is in trouble, and life to the bitter in soul, 21 Who long for death, but it comes not, and seek it as one seeks a hidden treasure; 22 Who rejoice exceedingly, and are glad when they can find the grave? 23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, whom God has hedged in? 24 For my sighing comes before I eat, and my moanings are poured out like water. 25 For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of has befallen me. 26 I am not at ease, neither am I calm, nor am I at rest; and yet misfortune came.
