1	My spirit is broken; my days are extinct; the graveyard is ready for me.
2	Surely there are mockers about me, and my eye dwells on their provocation.
3	“Lay down a pledge for me with yourself; who is there who will put up security for me?
4	Since you have closed their hearts to understanding, therefore you will not let them triumph.
5	He who informs against his friends to get a share of their property- the eyes of his children will fail.
6	“He has made me a byword of the peoples, and I am one before whom men spit.
7	My eye has grown dim from vexation, and all my members are like a shadow.
8	The upright are appalled at this, and the innocent stirs himself up against the godless.
9	Yet the righteous holds to his way, and he who has clean hands grows stronger and stronger.
10	But you, come on again, all of you, and I shall not find a wise man among you.
11	My days are past; my plans are broken off, the desires of my heart.
12	They make night into day; 'The light,' they say, 'is near to the darkness.'
13	If I hope for Sheol as my house, if I make my bed in darkness,
14	if I say to the pit, 'You are my father,' and to the worm, 'My mother,' or 'My sister,'
15	where then is my hope? Who will see my hope?
16	Will it go down to the bars of Sheol? Shall we descend together into the dust?“

1	My spirit is broken, my days are cut short, the grave awaits me.
2	Surely mockers surround me; my eyes must dwell on their hostility.
3	“Give me, O God, the pledge you demand. Who else will put up security for me?
4	You have closed their minds to understanding; therefore you will not let them triumph.
5	If a man denounces his friends for reward, the eyes of his children will fail.
6	“God has made me a byword to everyone, a man in whose face people spit.
7	My eyes have grown dim with grief; my whole frame is but a shadow.
8	Upright men are appalled at this; the innocent are aroused against the ungodly.
9	Nevertheless, the righteous will hold to their ways, and those with clean hands will grow stronger.
10	“But come on, all of you, try again! I will not find a wise man among you.
11	My days have passed, my plans are shattered, and so are the desires of my heart.
12	These men turn night into day; in the face of darkness they say, 'Light is near.'
13	If the only home I hope for is the grave, if I spread out my bed in darkness,
14	if I say to corruption, 'You are my father,' and to the worm, 'My mother' or 'My sister,'
15	where then is my hope? Who can see any hope for me?
16	Will it go down to the gates of death? Will we descend together into the dust?“

1	“My spirit is crushed, and my life is nearly snuffed out. The grave is ready to receive me.
2	I am surrounded by mockers. I watch how bitterly they taunt me.
3	“You must defend my innocence, O God, since no one else will stand up for me.
4	You have closed their minds to understanding, but do not let them triumph.
5	They betray their friends for their own advantage, so let their children faint with hunger.
6	“God has made a mockery of me among the people; they spit in my face.
7	My eyes are swollen with weeping, and I am but a shadow of my former self.
8	The virtuous are horrified when they see me. The innocent rise up against the ungodly.
9	The righteous keep moving forward, and those with clean hands become stronger and stronger.
10	“As for all of you, come back with a better argument, though I still won't find a wise man among you.
11	My days are over. My hopes have disappeared. My heart's desires are broken.
12	These men say that night is day; they claim that the darkness is light.
13	What if I go to the grave and make my bed in darkness?
14	What if I call the grave my father, and the maggot my mother or my sister?
15	Where then is my hope? Can anyone find it?
16	No, my hope will go down with me to the grave. We will rest together in the dust!“

1	My breath is corrupt, my days are extinct, the graves are ready for me.
2	Are there not mockers with me? and doth not mine eye continue in their provocation?
3	Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who is he that will strike hands with me?
4	For thou hast hid their heart from understanding: therefore shalt thou not exalt them.
5	He that speaketh flattery to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail.
6	He hath made me also a byword of the people; and aforetime I was as a tabret.
7	Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow.
8	Upright men shall be astonied at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite.
9	The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger.
10	But as for you all, do ye return, and come now: for I cannot find one wise man among you.
11	My days are past, my purposes are broken off, even the thoughts of my heart.
12	They change the night into day: the light is short because of darkness.
13	If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness.
14	I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister.
15	And where is now my hope? as for my hope, who shall see it?
16	They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when our rest together is in the dust.
