12 Why do you keep me under guard?Do you think I am a sea monster?
13 I lie down and try to rest;I look for relief from my pain.
14 But you — you terrify me with dreams;you send me visions and nightmares
15 until I would rather be strangledthan live in this miserable body.
16 I give up; I am tired of living.Leave me alone. My life makes no sense.
17 Why are human beings so important to you?Why pay attention to what they do?
18 You inspect them every morningand test them every minute.
