6 He has made me live in darkness,like those who died a long time ago.
7 He has blocked me so that I can’t get out.He has put heavy chains on me.
8 Even when I cry and call for help, he shuts out my prayer.
9 He has blocked my way with cut stones and made my paths crooked.
10 He is like a bear waiting to ambush me, like a lion in hiding.
11 He has forced me off the road I was taking, torn me to pieces,and left me with nothing.
12 He has drawn his bow and made me the target for his arrows.
