22. Thou hast lifted me up, and set me as it were upon the wind, and thou hast mightily dashed me.
23. I know that thou wilt deliver me to death, where a house is appointed for every one that liveth.
24. But yet thou stretchest not forth thy hand to their consumption: and if they shall fall down thou wilt save.
25. I wept heretofore for him that was afflicted, and my soul had compassion on the poor.
26. I expected good things, and evils are come upon me: I waited for light, and darkness broke out.
27. My inner parts have boiled without any rest, the days of affliction have prevented me.
28. I went mourning without indignation; I rose up, and cried in the crowd.
29. I was the brother of dragons, and companion of ostriches.
30. My skin is become black upon me, and my bones are dried up with heat.
