30:24 “Surely one does not stretch out his hand
against a broken man52
when he cries for help in his distress.53
30:25 Have I not wept for the unfortunate?54
Was not my soul grieved for the poor?
30:26 But when I hoped for good, trouble came;
when I expected light, then darkness came.
30:27 My heart55 is in turmoil56 unceasingly;57
the days of my affliction confront me.
30:28 I go about blackened,58 but not by the sun;
in the assembly I stand up and cry for help.
30:29 I have become a brother to jackals
and a companion of ostriches.59
30:30 My skin has turned dark on me;60
my body61 is hot with fever.62
30:31 My harp is used for63 mourning
and my flute for the sound of weeping.
