I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me.

My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off.

I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's children.

Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.

Thou hast put away mine acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.

Lover and friend hast thou put far from me, and mine acquaintance into darkness.

For now ye are nothing; ye see my casting down, and are afraid.

Or, Deliver me from the enemy's hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty?
