12. DALETH. He has bent his bow, and he has positioned me like a target for his arrows.
13. HE. He has shot into my kidneys the daughters of his quiver.
14. HE. I have become a derision to all my people, their song throughout the day.
15. HE. He has filled me with bitterness; he has inebriated me with wormwood.
16. VAU. And he has broken each one of my teeth; he has fed me with ashes.
17. VAU. And my soul has been driven away from peace; I have forgotten what is good.
18. VAU. And I said, "My end and my hope from the Lord has perished."
