17 What [is] man that You magnify him? And that You set Your heart to him?

18 And inspect him in the mornings, || [And] in the evenings try him?

19 How long do You not look from me? You do not desist until I swallow my spittle.

20 I have sinned, what do I do to You, || O watcher of man? Why have You set me for a mark to You, || And I am for a burden to myself—and what?

21 You do not take away my transgression, || And [do not] cause my iniquity to pass away, || Because now, I lie down in dust, || And You have sought me—and I am not!”
