12 Am I Sea or the Sea Monsterthat you place me under guard?
13 If I say, "My couch will comfort me,"my bed will diminish my murmuring.
14 You scare me with dreams,frighten me with visions.
15 I would choose stranglingand death instead of my bones.
16 I reject life; I don’t want to live long;leave me alone, for my days are empty.
17 What are human beings, that you exalt them,that you take note of them,
18 visit them each morning,test them every moment?
