Then I looked again at all the acts of oppression which were being done under the sun. And behold I saw the tears of the oppressed and that they had no one to comfort them; and on the side of their oppressors was power, but they had no one to comfort them.

She weeps bitterly in the night
And her tears are on her cheeks;
She has none to comfort her
Among all her lovers.
All her friends have dealt treacherously with her;
They have become her enemies.


For zeal for Your house has consumed me,
And the reproaches of those who reproach You have fallen on me.


But I am a worm and not a man,
A reproach of men and despised by the people.

Because for Your sake I have borne reproach;
Dishonor has covered my face.



As a shattering of my bones, my adversaries revile me,
While they say to me all day long, “Where is your God?”

Because of the voice of him who reproaches and reviles,
Because of the presence of the enemy and the avenger.
