But the dead shall not see life, neither shall physicians by any means raise up: therefore thou hast brought upon , and slain , and hast taken away every male of them. Bring more evils upon them, O Lord;
15
bring more evils on the glorious ones of the earth.
16
Lord, in affliction I remembered thee; thy chastening was to us with small affliction.
17
And as a woman in travail draws nigh to be delivered, cries out in her pain; so have we been to thy beloved.
18
We have conceived, O Lord, because of thy fear, and have been in pain, and have brought forth the breath of thy salvation, which we have wrought upon the earth: we shall not fall, but all that dwell upon the land shall fall.
