15 so that I prefer strangling and death,

rather than this body of mine.

15 So that my soul chooseth strangling,

And death rather than my life.

15 I would rather be strangled—

rather die than suffer like this.

15 So that my soul chooses strangling

And death rather than my body.

15 My throat prefers to be choked;

my bones welcome death.

15 So that my soul chooseth strangling,

And death rather than these my bones.

15 So that my soul chooseth strangling, death, rather than my bones.

15 My throat would rather be choked. 

My bodywould prefer death ⸤to these dreams⸥. 

15 so that I prefer strangling —

death rather than life in this body.

15 so that I would choose strangling

and death rather than this body.

15 So my inner self will choose strangling—

death more than my existence.

15 So I would rather choke to death.

That would be better than living in this body of mine.

15 So that my soul would choose suffocation,

Death rather than my pains.
