10 I said: In the primeH of my lifex

I must go to the gates of Sheol;y

I am deprived of the rest of my years.

11 I said: I will never see the Lord,

the Lord in the land of the living;z

I will not look on humanity any longer

with the inhabitants of what is passing away.I

12 My dwelling is plucked up and removed from me

like a shepherd’s tent.aa

I have rolled up my life like a weaver;ab

he cuts me off from the loom.ac

By nightfall* you make an end of me.ad
