11 God has made my body weak.
    It’s like a tent that has fallen down.
    So those children do what they want to in front of me.
12 Many people attack me on my right side.

    They come at me from every direction.
13 They tear up the road I walk on.
    They succeed in destroying me.
    They say, ‘No one can help him.’

12 On my right(D) the tribe[a] attacks;
    they lay snares(E) for my feet,(F)
    they build their siege ramps against me.(G)
13 They break up my road;(H)
    they succeed in destroying me.(I)
    ‘No one can help him,’ they say.
