21
Who long for death, but it does not come, And search for it more than hidden treasures;
22
Who rejoice exceedingly, And are glad when they can find the grave?
23
Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden, And whom God has hedged in?
24
For my sighing comes before I eat, And my groanings pour out like water.
25
For the thing I greatly feared has come upon me, And what I dreaded has happened to me.
26
I am not at ease, nor am I quiet; I have no rest, for trouble comes."
