¹⁸ Digo, pois: Já pereceu a minha força, como também a minha esperança no Senhor.

⁶ Pois eu, o Senhor, não mudo; por isso vós, ó filhos de Jacó, não sois consumidos.

⁸ Yes, when I cry, and call for help, he shuts out my prayer.

⁹ He has walled up my ways with cut stone; he has made my paths crooked.

¹⁰ He is to me as a bear lying in wait, as a lion in secret places.

¹¹ He has turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces; he has made me desolate.
