“I shout, ‘I have been wronged!’
    But I get no answer.
I call loudly for help,
    but I receive no justice.
God has blocked my way so I cannot pass.
    He has covered my paths with darkness.
He has taken away my honor.
    He has removed the crown from my head.
10 He beats me down on every side until I am gone.
    He pulls up my hope as a tree is pulled up by its roots.
11 His anger burns against me.
    And he treats me as one of his enemies.
12 His armies gather.
    They prepare a way to attack me.
    They camp around my tent.
