4 I also could speak as ye do; If your soul were in my soul's stead, I could join words together against you, And shake my head at you.
5 'But' I would strengthen you with my mouth, And the solace of my lips would assuage 'your grief'.
6 Though I speak, my grief is not assuaged; And though I forbear, what am I eased?
7 But now he hath made me weary: Thou hast made desolate all my company.
8 And thou hast laid fast hold on me, 'which' is a witness 'against me': And my leanness riseth up against me, It testifieth to my face.
