11 I said, “I shall not see the Lord, even the Lord, in the land of the living; I shall behold man no more with the inhabitants of the world.

12 Mine age is departed and is removed from me as a shepherd’s tent; I have cut off like a weaver my life. He will cut me off with pining sickness; from day even to night wilt Thou make an end of me.

11 I said, “I will not again see the Lord himself(A)
    in the land of the living;(B)
no longer will I look on my fellow man,
    or be with those who now dwell in this world.

    has been pulled down(D) and taken from me.
Like a weaver I have rolled(E) up my life,
    and he has cut me off from the loom;(F)
    day and night(G) you made an end of me.
13 I waited patiently(H) till dawn,
    but like a lion he broke(I) all my bones;(J)
    day and night(K) you made an end of me.
