Verse 2ב׳Standard2,232
לוּ שָׁקוֹל יִשָּׁקֵל כַּעְשִׂי והיתי בְּֽמֹאזְנַיִם יִשְׂאוּ־יָֽחַד
Oh that my vexation were but weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances altogether!
Verse 3ג׳Standard1,217
כִּֽי־עַתָּה מֵחוֹל יַמִּים יִכְבָּד עַל־כֵּן דְּבָרַי לָֽעוּ
For now it would be heavier than the sand of the seas; therefore are my words broken.

כִּי חִצֵּי שַׁדַּי עִמָּדִי אֲשֶׁר חֲמָתָם שֹׁתָה רוּחִי בִּעוּתֵי אֱלוֹהַּ יַֽעַרְכֽוּנִי
For the arrows of the Almighty are within me, the poison whereof my spirit drinketh up; the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.

Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? Or loweth the ox over his fodder?
Verse 6ו׳Standard2,102
הֲיֵאָכֵל תָּפֵל מִבְּלִי־מֶלַח אִם־יֶשׁ־טַעַם בְּרִיר חַלָּמֽוּת
Can that which hath no savour be eaten without salt? Or is there any taste in the juice of mallows?
Verse 7ז׳Standard873
מֵאֲנָה לִנְגּוֹעַ נַפְשִׁי הֵמָּה כִּדְוֵי לַחְמִֽי
My soul refuseth to touch them; they are as the sickness of my flesh.
Verse 8ח׳Standard3,084
מִֽי־יִתֵּן תָּבוֹא שֶֽׁאֱלָתִי וְתִקְוָתִי יִתֵּן אֱלֽוֹהַּ
Oh that I might have my request, and that God would grant me the thing that I long for! .
Verse 9ט׳Standard1,058
וְיֹאֵל אֱלוֹהַּ וִֽידַכְּאֵנִי יַתֵּר יָדוֹ וִֽיבַצְּעֵֽנִי
Even that it would please God to crush me; that He would let loose His hand, and cut me off!
Verse 10י׳Standard2,459
וּתְהִי עוֹד נֶחָמָתִי וַאֲסַלְּדָה בְחִילָה לֹא יַחְמוֹל כִּי־לֹא כִחַדְתִּי אִמְרֵי קָדֽוֹשׁ
Then should I yet have comfort; yea, I would exult in pain, though He spare not; For I have not denied the words of the Holy One.
