10. I was dumb, and I opened not my mouth, because thou hast done it.
11. Remove thy scourges from me. The strength of thy hand hath made me faint in rebukes:
12. thou hast corrected man for iniquity. And thou hast made his soul to waste away like a spider: surely in vain is any man disquieted.
13. Hear my prayer, O Lord, and my supplication: give ear to my tears. Be not silent: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner as all my fathers were.
14. O forgive me, that I may be refreshed, before I go hence, and be no more.
