“Behold, (A)I cry, ‘Violence!’ but I get no answer;
I shout for help, but there is no justice.

He has (D)stripped my honor from me
And removed the (E)crown from my head.
10 He (F)breaks me down on every side, and I am gone;
And He has uprooted my (G)hope (H)like a tree.
11 He has also (I)kindled His anger against me
And (J)counted me as His adversary.
12 His (K)troops come together,
And (L)build up their [a]way against me
And camp around my tent.
