2. “I have heard many such things;miserable comforters are you all!
3. Will windy words have an end?Or what provokes you that you answer?
4. I also could speak as you do,if your soul were in my place.I could heap up words against youand shake my head at you;
5. but I would strengthen you with my mouth,and the moving of my lips would relieve your grief.
6. “Though I speak, my grief is not relieved;and though I stop, how am I eased?
7. But now He has made me weary;You have made desolate all my company.
8. You have filled me with wrinkles, which is a witness against me;and my leanness has risen up and bears witness to my face.
9. He has torn me in His wrath, and He has carried a grudge against me.He has gnashed me with His teeth;my enemy sharpens His gaze upon me.
10. They have gaped upon me with their mouth;they have struck me upon the cheek with reproach;they have gathered themselves together against me.
11. God has delivered me to the ungodlyand turned me over into the hands of the wicked.
12. I was at ease, but He has shattered me.He also has taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces,and set me up for His target.
