MY breath is corrupt, my days are extinct, the graves are ready for me.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013734">2</a>. Are there not mockers with me?  and doth not mine eye continue in their provocation?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013735">3</a>. Lay down now, put me in a surety with thee; who is he that will strike hands with me?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013736">4</a>. For thou hast hid their heart from understanding: therefore shalt thou not exalt them.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013737">5</a>. He that speaketh flattery to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013738">6</a>. He hath made me also a byword of the people; and aforetime I was as a tabret.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013739">7</a>. Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013740">8</a>. Upright men shall be astonied at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013741">9</a>. The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013742">10</a>. But as for you all, do ye return, and come now: for I cannot find one wise man among you.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013743">11</a>. My days are past, my purposes are broken off, even the thoughts of my heart.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013744">12</a>. They change the night into day: the light is short because of darkness.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013745">13</a>. If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013746">14</a>. I have said to corruption, Thou art my father: to the worm, Thou art my mother, and my sister.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013747">15</a>. And where is now my hope?  as for my hope, who shall see it?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1013748">16</a>. They shall go down to the bars of the pit, when our rest together is in the dust.</li>
