| 1 | My breath is corrupt, my dayes are extinct, the graues are ready for me. |
| 2 | Are there not mockers with mee? and doeth not mine eye continue in their prouocation? |
| 3 | Lay downe now, put me in a suretie with thee; who is he that will strike hands with me? |
| 4 | For thou hast hid their heart from vnderstanding: therefore shalt thou not exalt them. |
| 5 | Hee that speaketh flattery to his friends, euen the eyes of his children shall faile. |
| 6 | He hath made me also a by-word of the people, and afore time I was as a tabret. |
| 7 | Mine eye also is dimme by reason of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow. |
| 8 | Upright men shall be astonied at this, and the innocent shall stirre vp himselfe against the hypocrite. |
| 9 | The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath cleane hands shalbe stronger, and stronger. |
| 10 | But as for you all, doe you returne, and come now, for I cannot find one wise man among you. |
| 11 | My dayes are past, my purposes are broken off, euen the thoughts of my heart: |
| 12 | They change the night into day: the light is short, because of darknes. |
| 13 | If I waite, the graue is mine house: I haue made my bedde in the darknesse. |
| 14 | I haue said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worme, Thou art my mother, and my sister. |
| 15 | And where is now my hope? as for my hope, who shall see it? |
| 16 | They shall goe downe to the barres of the pit, when our rest together is in the dust. |
