Behold, I (A)cry out, ‘Violence!’ but I am not answered;
    I call for help, but there is no justice.
He has (B)walled up my way, so that I cannot pass,
    and he has set darkness upon my paths.
He has (C)stripped from me my glory
    and taken the (D)crown from my head.
10 He breaks me down on every side, and I (E)am gone,
    and my hope has he pulled up like a tree.
11 He has kindled his wrath against me
    and (F)counts me as his adversary.
12 His (G)troops come on together;
    they have (H)cast up their siege ramp[a] against me
    and encamp around my tent.
