And has surrounded me with His net.

And (E)He counts me as one of His enemies.

He pours out my gall on the ground.
14 He breaks me with wound upon wound;
He runs at me like a [b]warrior.
15 “I have sewn sackcloth over my skin,
And (D)laid my [c]head in the dust.
16 My face is [d]flushed from weeping,
And on my eyelids is the shadow of death;
