8 You have shrivelled me up – and it has become a witness;my gauntness rises up and testifies against me.
9 God assails me and tears me in his angerand gnashes his teeth at me;my opponent fastens on me his piercing eyes.
10 People open their mouths to jeer at me;they strike my cheek in scornand unite together against me.
11 God has turned me over to the ungodlyand thrown me into the clutches of the wicked.
12 All was well with me, but he shattered me;he seized me by the neck and crushed me.He has made me his target;
13 his archers surround me.Without pity, he pierces my kidneysand spills my gall on the ground.
14 Again and again he bursts upon me;he rushes at me like a warrior.
