Take heed, regard not iniquity: for this hast thou chosen rather than affliction.

My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me.

Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye did communicate with my affliction.

This is my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me.

Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our loins.

Unless thy law had been my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction.
