Rh :And ye dig a pit for your friend.
 * Now therefore be content, look upon me;
 * For it is evident unto you if I lie.
 * Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity;
 * Yea, return again, my righteousness is in it.
 * Is there iniquity in my tongue?
 * Cannot my taste discern perverse things?


 * not an appointed time to man upon earth?
 * Are not his days also like the days of an hireling?
 * As a servant earnestly desireth the shadow,
 * And as an hireling looketh for the reward of his work:
 * So am I made to possess months of vanity,
 * And wearisome nights are appointed to me.
 * When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone?
 * And I am full of tossings to and fro unto the dawning of the day.
 * My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust;
 * My skin is broken, and become loathsome.
 * My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle,
 * And are spent without hope.
 * O remember that my life is wind:
 * Mine eye shall no more see good.
 * The eye of him that hath seen me shall see me no more:
 * Thine eyes are upon me, and I am not.
