16 I loathe my life! I would not live forever. Leave me alone, for my days are but a breath.
17 What is man that You should exalt him, that You should set Your heart upon him,
18 that You attend to him every morning, and test him every moment?
19 Will You never look away from me, or leave me alone to swallow my spittle?
20 If I have sinned, what have I done to You, O watcher of mankind? Why have You made me Your target, so that I am a burden to You?
