5He that denounceth his friends for a prey, Even the eyes of his children shall fail.

6But he hath made me a byword of the people; And they spit in my face.

7Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, And all my members are as a shadow.

8Upright men shall be astonished at this, And the innocent shall stir up himself against the godless.

9Yet shall the righteous hold on his way, And he that hath clean hands shall wax stronger and stronger.

10But as for you all, come on now again; And I shall not find a wise man among you.

11My days are past, my purposes are broken off, Even the thoughts of my heart.
