10 For it did not shut the doors of the womb on me, nor did it hide trouble from my eyes.
11 Why did I not die at birth and expire as I exited the womb?
12 Why did the knees welcome me, and breasts that I might nurse?
13 For now I would be lying down and quiet; I would be asleep and at rest
14 with kings and counselors of the earth, who built for themselves places now desolate,
15 with princes who had gold, who filled their houses with silver.
16 Or why was I not hidden like a stillborn, like infants who never saw light?
