11 Also I -- I withhold not my mouth -- I speak in the  distress of my spirit, I talk in the bitterness of my soul.
         
                                
                        12 A sea-[monster] am I, or a dragon, That thou settest over  me a guard?
         
                                
                        13 When I said, `My bed doth comfort me,` He taketh away in my  talking my couch.
         
                                
                        14 And thou hast affrighted me with dreams, And from visions  thou terrifiest me,
         
                                
                        15 And my soul chooseth strangling, Death rather than my  bones.
         
                                
                        16 I have wasted away -- not to the age do I live. Cease from  me, for my days [are] vanity.
         
                                
                        17 What [is] man that Thou dost magnify him? And that Thou  settest unto him Thy heart?
