Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him. {maintain: Heb. prove, or, argue}

What {is} my strength, that I should hope? and what {is} mine end, that I should prolong my life?

He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope hath he removed like a tree.

{Is} not {this} thy fear, thy confidence, thy hope, and the uprightness of thy ways?

My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are spent without hope.

{Is} not {this} thy fear, thy confidence, thy hope, and the uprightness of thy ways?

My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and are spent without hope.

And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD:

He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope hath he removed like a tree.
