6 “Now treat me as you please.Take my life away and free me from this world;let my body return to the earth.I would be better off dead.I am tormented by insults I don't deserve,and weighed down with despair.Lord, give the command —bring all my troubles to an end,take me to my eternal rest.Don't reject my prayer.I would rather die than live in miseryand face such cruel insults.”
