23 Why is life given to a man

whose way is hidden,

whom God has hedged in?

23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden,

whom God has hedged in?

23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, And whom God hath hedged in?

23 Why is life given to those with no future,

those God has surrounded with difficulties?

23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden,

And whom God has hedged in?

23 They cannot see where they are going.

God has hidden the road ahead.

23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hid,

And whom God hath hedged in?

23 To the man whose way is hidden, and whom †God hath hedged in?

23 Why give light to those whose paths have been hidden, 

to those whom God has fenced in? 

23 Why is life given to a man whose path is hidden,

whom God has hedged in?

23 Why is light given to one who cannot see the way,

whom God has fenced in?

23 Why does he give light to a man whose way is hidden,

and God has fenced him in all around?

23 Why is life given to a man like me?

God hasn’t told me what will happen to me.

He has surrounded me with nothing but trouble.
