17:1 My breath 7307 is corrupt 2254 8795, my days 3117 are extinct 2193 8738, the graves 6913 [are ready] for me.(breath…: or, spirit is spent)

17:2 [Are there] not mockers 2049 with me? and doth not mine eye 5869 continue 3885 8799 in their provocation 4784 8687?(continue: Heb. lodge)

17:3 Lay down 7760 8798 now, put me in a surety 6148 8798 with thee; who [is] he [that] will strike 8628 8735 hands 3027 with me?

17:4 For thou hast hid 6845 8804 their heart 3820 from understanding 7922: therefore shalt thou not exalt 7311 8787 [them].

17:5 He that speaketh 5046 8686 flattery 2506 to [his] friends 7453, even the eyes 5869 of his children 1121 shall fail 3615 8799.

17:6 He hath made 3322 8689 me also a byword 4914 of the people 5971; and aforetime 6440 I was as a tabret 8611.(aforetime: or, before them)

17:7 Mine eye 5869 also is dim 3543 8799 by reason of sorrow 3708, and all my members 3338 [are] as a shadow 6738.(my members: or, my thoughts)

17:8 Upright 3477 [men] shall be astonied 8074 8799 at this, and the innocent 5355 shall stir up 5782 8709 himself against the hypocrite 2611.

17:9 The righteous 6662 also shall hold 270 8799 on his way 1870, and he that hath clean 2890 hands 3027 shall be 3254 8686 stronger and stronger 555.(be…: Heb. add strength)

17:10 But 199 as for you all, do ye return 7725 8799, and come now 935 8798: for I cannot find 4672 8799 [one] wise 2450 [man] among you.

17:11 My days 3117 are past 5674 8804, my purposes 2154 are broken off 5423 8738, [even] the thoughts 4180 of my heart 3824.(the thoughts: Heb. the possessions)

17:12 They change 7760 8799 the night 3915 into day 3117: the light 216 [is] short 7138 because 6440 of darkness 2822.(short: Heb. near)

17:13 If I wait 6960 8762, the grave 7585 [is] mine house 1004: I have made 7502 8765 my bed 3326 in the darkness 2822.

17:14 I have said 7121 8804 to corruption 7845, Thou [art] my father 1: to the worm 7415, [Thou art] my mother 517, and my sister 269.(said: Heb. cried, or, called)

17:15 And where [is] now 645 my hope 8615? as for my hope 8615, who shall see 7789 8799 it?

17:16 They shall go down 3381 8799 to the bars 905 of the pit 7585, when [our] rest 5183 together 3162 [is] in the dust 6083.
