18 Why did you lead me out of the womb? If only I had been consumed, so that no eye would ever see me!
19 I should have been as if I had not been: transferred from the womb to the tomb.
20 Will not my few days be completed soon? Release me, therefore, so that I may lament my sorrows a little,
21 before I depart and return no more to a land that is dark and covered with the fog of death,
22 a land of misery and darkness, where the shadow of death, and nothing else but everlasting horror, dwells.
