18. ‘Why then have You brought me out of the womb?Oh, that I had perished and no eye had seen me!
19. I would have been as though I had not been.I would have been carried from the womb to the grave.
20. Are not my days few?Cease! Leave me alone, that I may take a little comfort,
21. Before I go to the place from which I shall not return,To the land of darkness and the shadow of death,
22. A land as dark as darkness itself,As the shadow of death, without any order,Where even the light is like darkness.’ ”
