“If I cry out concerning [a]wrong, I am not heard.
If I cry aloud, there is no justice.
(A)He has [b]fenced up my way, so that I cannot pass;
And He has set darkness in my paths.
(B)He has stripped me of my glory,
And taken the crown from my head.
10 He breaks me down on every side,
And I am gone;
My (C)hope He has uprooted like a tree.
11 He has also kindled His wrath against me,
And (D)He counts me as one of His enemies.
12 His troops come together
And build up their road against me;
They encamp all around my tent.

Behold, I [a]cry out of wrong, but I am not heard:
I cry for help, but there is no justice.
He hath walled up my way that I cannot pass,
And hath set darkness in my paths.
He hath stripped me of my glory,
And taken the crown from my head.
10 He hath broken me down on every side, and I am gone;
And my hope hath he plucked up like a tree.
11 He hath also kindled his wrath against me,
And he counteth me unto him as one of his adversaries.
12 His troops come on together,
And cast up their way against me,
And encamp round about my tent.
