- Which long for death, but it cometh not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures;
 - Which rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they can find the grave?
 - Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in?
 - For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters.
 - For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.

- Who long for death, but there is none, And dig for it more than for hidden treasures,
 - Who rejoice greatly, And exult when they find the grave?
 - "Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden, And whom God has hedged in?
 - "For my groaning comes at the sight of my food, And my cries pour out like water.
 - "For what I fear comes upon me, And what I dread befalls me.
