26 When I looked for good, then evil came unto me: and when I waited for light, there came darkness.
27 My heart is in turmoil, and rests not: the days of affliction confront me.
28 I went mourning but not in the sun: I stood up, and I cried in the congregation.
29 I am a brother to jackals, and a companion to ostriches.
30 My skin is black upon me, and my bones are burned with heat.
31 My harp also is turned to mourning, and my flute into the voice of them that weep.
