6 Por acaso se come o insípido sem sal? Ou há gosto na clara do ovo?

7 Minha alma se recusa tocar [essas coisas] ,que são para mim como comida detestável.

8 Ah se meu pedido fosse realizado, e se Deus [me] desse o que espero!

9 Que Deus me destruísse; ele soltasse sua mão, e acabasse comigo!

10 Isto ainda seria meu consolo, um alívio em meio ao tormento que não [me] poupa; pois eu não tenho escondido as palavras do Santo.
