14 Then thou scarest me with dreams, and terrifiest me through visions:
15 So that my soul chooseth strangling, and death rather than my life.
16 I lothe it; I would not live always: let me alone; for my days are vanity.
17 What is man, that thou shouldst magnify him? and that thou shouldst set thy heart upon him?
18 And that thou shouldst visit him every morning, and try him every moment?
19 How long wilt thou not depart from me, nor let me alone till I swallow my spittle?
20 I have sinned; what shall I do to thee, O thou preserver of men? why hast thou set me as a mark against thee, so that I am a burden to myself?
