12 Am I a sea, or a sea-monster, That you put a guard over me?
13 When I say, `My bed shall comfort me, My couch shall ease my complaint;`
14 Then you scar me with dreams, And terrify me through visions:
15 So that my soul chooses strangling, Death rather than my bones.
16 I loathe my life. I don`t want to live forever. Leave me alone; for my days are but a breath.
17 What is man, that you should magnify him, That you should set your mind on him,
18 That you should visit him every morning, And test him every moment?
