ASV

10
Because it did not shut the opening of my mother’s womb,
Or hide trouble from my eyes.
11
“Why did I not die at birth,
Come out of the womb and pass away?
12
“Why were the knees there in front of me,
And why the breasts, that I would nurse?
13
“For now I would have lain down and been quiet;
I would have slept then, I would have been at rest,
14
With kings and counselors of the earth,
Who rebuilt ruins for themselves;
15
Or with rulers who had gold,
Who were filling their houses with silver.
16
“Or like a miscarriage which is hidden, I would not exist,
As infants that never saw light.
