17 There the wicked cease from turmoil, and there the weary are at rest.
18 Prisoners are at ease together; they do not hear the voice of the taskmaster.
19 Small and great are there; and slave is free from his master.
20 Why is light given to one who suffers and life to the bitter of soul,
21 to those who long for death, but it does not come, who dig for it more than for hidden treasures,
22 who are filled with gladness and rejoice when finding the grave?
23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden, and whom God has hedged in?
