4 The fearsome arrowsof God All-Powerfulhave filled my soulwith their poison.
5 Do oxen and wild donkeyscry out in distressunless they are hungry?
6 What is food without salt?What is more tastelessthan the white of an egg?
7 That's how my food tastes,and my appetite is gone.*
8 How I wish that Godwould answer my prayer
9 and do away with me.
10 Then I would be comforted,knowing that in all of my painI have never disobeyed God.
