season, and am not silent. But you are holy, O
          you  that  inhabit  the  praises  of  Israel.  Our
          fathers trusted in you: and you delivered them.
          They  cried unto  you  and  were  delivered:  they
          trusted in you and were not confounded.


          But  I  am  a  worm,  and no  man;  a  reproach  of
          men, and despised of the people. All they that
          see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the

          beset  me  round.  They  gaped  upon  me  with

          their mouths as a ravening and a roaring lion. I
          am poured out like water, and all my bones are
