15 Costurei saco sobre minha pele, e revolvi minha cabeça no pó.

16 Meu rosto está vermelho de choro, e minhas pálpebras estão escurecidas ao extremo;

17 Apesar de não haver injustiça em minhas mãos, e de minha oração ser pura.

18 Ó terra! Não cubras o meu sangue, e não haja lugar para meu clamor!

19 Eis que mesmo agora minha testemunha está nos céus, e meu defensor nas alturas.
