12 You have granted me life and lovingkindness. Your visitation has preserved my spirit.
13 Yet you hid these things in your heart. I know that this is with you:
14 If I sin, then you mark me. You will not acquit me from my iniquity.
15 If I am wicked, woe to me. If I am righteous, I still shall not lift up my head, Being filled with disgrace, And conscious of my affliction.
16 If my head is held high, you hunt me like a lion. Again you show yourself powerful to me.
17 You renew your witnesses against me, And increase your indignation on me. Changes and warfare are with me.
18 "`Why, then, have you brought me forth out of the womb? I wish I had given up the spirit, and no eye had seen me.
