10 “I ^(A)loathe my life;
I will give free utterance to my ^(B)complaint;
    I will speak in ^(C)the bitterness of my soul.
² I will say to God, Do not ^(D)condemn me;
    let me know why you ^(E)contend against me.
^3 (F)Does it seem good to you to oppress,
    to despise ^(G)the work of your hands
    ^(H)and favor the designs of the wicked?
⁴ Have you ^(I)eyes of flesh?
    ^(J)Do you see as man sees?
⁵ Are your days as the days of man,
    or your ^(K)years as a man's years,
⁶ that you ^(L)seek out my iniquity
    and search for my sin,
⁷ although you ^(M)know that I am not guilty,
    and there is ^(N)none to deliver out of your hand?
^8 (O)Your hands fashioned and made me,
    and now you have destroyed me altogether.
⁹ Remember that you have made me like ^(P)clay;
    and will you return me to the ^(Q)dust?
¹⁰ Did you not pour me out like milk
    and curdle me like cheese?
¹¹ You clothed me with skin and flesh,
    and knit me together with bones and sinews.
¹² You have granted me life and steadfast love,
    and your care has preserved my spirit.
¹³ Yet these things you hid in your heart;
    I know that ^(R)this was your purpose.
¹⁴ If I sin, you ^(S)watch me
    and do not ^(T)acquit me of my iniquity.
^15 (U)If I am guilty, woe to me!
    If I am ^(V)in the right, I cannot lift up my head,
for I am filled with disgrace
    and ^(W)look on my affliction.
¹⁶ And were my head lifted up,^[a] you would hunt me like ^(X)a lion
    and again work ^(Y)wonders against me.
¹⁷ You renew your ^(Z)witnesses against me
    and increase your vexation toward me;
    you ^(AA)bring fresh troops against me.
