And nation was destroyed of nation, and city of city: for God did vex them with all adversity.

Mine age is departed, and is removed from me as a shepherd's tent: I have cut off like a weaver my life: he will cut me off with pining sickness: from day even to night wilt thou make an end of me.

I reckoned till morning, that, as a lion, so will he break all my bones: from day even to night wilt thou make an end of me.

If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.

When a few years are come, then I shall go the way whence I shall not return.

O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more.

When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:

His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name in the street.

Yet he shall perish for ever like his own dung: they which have seen him shall say, Where is he?

Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years, and departed without being desired. Howbeit they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings.

Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.

The memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rot.
