I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long. {troubled: Heb. wried}

He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were {our} faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. {we hid...: or, he hid as it were his face from us: Heb. as an hiding of faces from him, or, from us}

I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long. {troubled: Heb. wried}

We roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but {there is} none; for salvation, {but} it is far off from us.
