11 I said, I shall not see [a]Jehovah, even [b]Jehovah in the land of the living:
I shall behold man no more [c]with the inhabitants of the world.
12 My dwelling is removed, and is carried away from me as a shepherd’s tent:
I have rolled up, like a weaver, my life; he will cut me off from the [d]loom:

From day even to night wilt thou make an end of me.
